### 4/5 — I can't update update this on iPod 5

*2022-10-05, version 4.0*

This device must be compatible since it runs the last version of iOS 9. It should definitely be able to get updated. This device tends to send error messages when I try to update this app. For the rest of my devices I own, everything seems to work well. This bug must be fixed.

### 1/5 — How Do I Delete This App?

*2022-02-14, version 4.0*

How can I delete this app from my iPad?

### 1/5 — App Won't Update-Update Notification Now Bothering Me

*2022-01-19, version 4.0*

Yes my phone is old.  I keep it on airplane mode so Apple can't keep turning my phone on all the time and running out the battery.  And because it is old, the app won't update and the notification telling me there is an update won't go away either.  Nor can I remove the app...  And I should not have to go along with Apple's planned obsolescence and fouling of the environment, for the sake of their profits!

### 1/5 — No se complete el process de actualizacion

*2026-07-02, version 4.0*

IPad con iOS 9.3.5 no se actualiza. Dabs el mensaje que no se puede actualizar, no se puede desacertar la app y que se pruebe en otro momento pero es imposible dando el mismo fallo. Sería interesante buscar una solución. 
Probado nuevamente da mensaje que quizá haya sido adquirido con otra cuenta, cosa que no ha sido así. 
Gracias.

### 5/5 — Проблемы с обновлением

*2022-04-10, version 4.0*

У меня Айфон 4С, на котором установлена последняя для данной модели iOS 9.3.6. Вот уже довольно продолжительное время App Store предлагает обновить приложение "Найти Айфон", однако несмотря на все мои попытки обновить приложение мне не удаётся. Индикатор показывает, что загрузка состоялась, а затем обновление "падает", и так можно продолжать до бесконечности. Как можно избавиться от этой проблемы?

### 5/5 — You must have this app

*2022-02-04, version 4.0*

For the 2nd time I was forced by armed burglars to handover my iPhone 12 with unlocked screen. In like half hour I reached the home and activated lost mode, and erased the lost phone because I have financial data and emails no one out of company should be looking at, especially someone like these thieves. The message you’re can put in the lost and erased phone appears once anyone tries to open it. And so, as expected burglars went to software workshop trying to open it, and lucky me my message appeared to the maintenance guy who offered them to no way getting it open either they throw it as trash, or he can buy it as to be used as spare parts. The fools accepted and took like 100$ for it, and I got it back paying him this amount with big thanks.
The exact scenario happened back in 2014/2015 to my iPhone 5s.

### 5/5 — Student During
