Blank Screen

I have used Hina previously since it had launched, but since I’ve had an iPhone 13 Pro Max, the screen stays blank. I’ve had this phone for well over two years now and I periodically check to see if anything has changed as this was my favourite app to use and it still hasn’t. I’m leaving a review in hopes this will be sorted. A website would be good as well. I was following the FB page for updates and there’s been nothing since Feb 2025.
