*2022-06-15, version 3.1.2*

アプリそのものの改善を早急にお願いします。
あまりに酷いと思います。

### 4/5 — 使いやすくとても良いが、、、

*2019-03-25, version 2.6.15*

使い始めてから3ヶ月経ちますが、いつになってもなかなか言うことを聞いてくれません。たとえば、フォローしていない人もフォローしてあったり、ボタンを押してもなかなか動いてくれなかったり、、、、これからの改善を期待しています。でも、他の人たちとフォローしあったり出来て楽しいので星は4つ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️です。

### 3/5 — これからに期待

*2017-07-25, version 2.5.97*

四ヶ伝より上のお点前が選択肢にないので、できれば選択肢にその他(自由に記入できる)とかあれば使い易い
