Your data should still be secure, and we want to help you regain access as quickly as possible.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time on this app

*2020-01-27*

I downloaded this app for my iPhone, iPad, and iPod, and will tell you now, don’t waste your time with it.
First and foremost, the ads will drive you absolutely stark raving mad, as you open one pic, and the ad immediately pops up, and does so, before you can even see the pic you chose.
The ads are total overkill. 
Next problem is when you send a video from your device to the app, and go to watch it, thinking that it will be saved and ready to watch.
The user presses on the video to test it, and it immediately closes out the app and takes you to the home page where the app
Icon is.
This happened on all three devices.
The developer does not offer a pro ungraded version of it to rid itself of the ads.
Have deleted the app from all three devices.

**Developer response:** Hi,
I am completely agree with your issues and we are resolving this issue and new version of application will be live shortly with less ads as well as fix that suggested by you.
