What happened

This app used to work great , now I can't get it to work at all very sad :(

Will not function on iPhone 5s

I used this app on my 4th gen iPod Touch without a problem, but the slide bar does not appear at the top of the screen on my iPhone 5s. This makes the app useless, because I can't change the capo setting. My phone is running iOS version 8.3.
Please upload a fix for this.

Does not work on iPhone 6

I just tried using the app for the first time since buying my phone after upgrading from an iPhone 4 and the slide bar that is used to select capo setting is not visible - it's not there, rendering the app useless. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, as well as power cycling my iPhone, neither one worked. Very disappointing.

Won't load since ios6

Since ios6 I can't use the app. Worked fine til then, now picture comes up and then shuts down. Any help would be appreciated.

Nice, but...

It would be really helpful if it had Em A2 and such listed. I am transposing guitar chord sheets for the violin Sunday morning, and this program is helpful, but the above would really help. Would love to see this updated. Thanks.
