Keeps crashing

Unfortunately Unfortunately, the app kept crashing when importing scans from a fast SSD on my iPad. It also crashed when I tried to open the scans. My scans were quite big between 200 and 400 GB.

Unsubscribe non existent

Shady and impossible to unsubscribe easily, waiting for their email now to unsubscribe like we live in the 90ties. App is mediocre at its best.
