I am not download this app and I want to see how this app is I hope it’s good

Update or Remove from App Store

People had literally waited years for the last updates that finally occurred 2 years ago only to realize that particular update was to fix something that was iPad specific & didn’t to much of anything for anyone else. I really do not like the fact that this app takes control of the portrait orientation feature of my phone that I always keep locked because
I absolutely hate having a screen bouncing between vertical and horizontal position especially when it’s not what I want my phone to do and also because it locks in a position that requires me to force close the app and start all over again, because I can’t see half of what’s supposed to be viewable once it does that. Between this and that stupid ability to change your wallpaper from the lock screen, something nobody in history ever asked for, but Apple decided to become android for a day, and just did it with no way to turn it off. These two things are driving me absolutely crazy. As a matter fact, so crazy I’m going to contact Apple support right now.

Please update to be ios11 compatible

Please update this app to be ios11 or higher compatible. I used it a few years ago teaching high school biology and it was so informative and interesting for the students. I’m teaching bio again this year and have gone to download it again but I can’t because it’s incompatible :(

Please Update

I use this app in each of my BIO courses I teach. Due to the iOS update it no longer works. Please please please update to work with iOS 11!

Great app just needs an update

Great app and information just needs to be updated to work with ios11
