App doesn’t properly load on iPhone XS. White screen with no functions, and support link is broken. If anything changes I’ll update my review! ### 1/5 — Same *2020-06-13, version 2.1* Just displays a white screen ### 1/5 — Does not work *2019-03-23* Just a blank white screen after downloading. ### 1/5 — Still broken? Blank white screen is all I see *2019-03-12* Fix or remove from App Store. A free app called “The Sun” works great by the way, and also shows solar noon, for anyone looking. ### 3/5 — Is currently broken ): *2019-02-26* I was so excited about this app but after it ask for location permission It just shows blank white boxes. Too bad. I hope it gets fixed soon! ### 1/5 — Didn't Work at All *2019-01-20* Maybe it's because I'm running iOS 10.3. ### 1/5 — Once great, now defunct (apparently) *2018-11-30* The first version of this app had much promise and seemingly offered a really neat function, something iv'e been looking for for a long time. But alas , it had too many errors and was mostly useless. And now a much hoped for new version, complete with fixes and improvements came fast enough. I quickly installed the update, and eagerly opened the app to see what the developers had done. It won't open beyond asking permission for location services. Then the dreaded white screen of death. Deletion and a re-install yielded the very same result. How disappointing! I would love this app and rate it highly, if it only worked. Please fix it fast. ********EDIT*********** I will change my review to 5 STARS based upon the much improved features and functionality of this cool app. My reason for the one star review was actually due to the carrier, Straight Talk, blocking some port, preventing the app from opening. Once I discovered this, and used a wifi, it was clear to me how much better this app was from the first iteration. Can you guys do anything about the blocked port? Don't know which port is involved. ********EDIT********** 11/28/18 We’re back to nonfunctional. It opens to a white screen independent of whether I am using WiFi or cellular data. Please fix!!! I loved this app! ## Frequently asked questions about Noonish ### What is Noonish?
