### 1/5 — Waste of Money

*2026-07-17, version 2.5*

Paid for the number candle, but an advertisement popped up literally every 5 seconds, so by the time I set the candle up, an advert popped up so my kid never got to “blow” out the candle.  It was later that I figured out I need to pay the $0.99 to remove ads.

### 1/5 — Ads are a problem
