### 1/5 — Sometimes works sometimes doesn’t

*2021-12-16, version 2.5*

When it works it’s good it keeps history longer than most of the apps . But there’s constant problems, constant glitches it keeps signing me out and when you sign out if you lose all the history and the location stops working. The support team takes forever to get back to you sometimes they help you sometimes they don’t get it right I wish they would fix these problems and if there’s so many problems constantly they should reimburse all of the time that is messed up
