### 4/5 — Figured out how to get in

*2025-02-16, version 1.0*

When you open the app and it makes you review the app. What you need to do is get on the app and turn off your Wi-Fi and turn off your data then press skip then it might make you watch a add but after the add just press skip again then it will work
