Something recently change?

All of sudden, I have to restart the app every time I open it. Just started a few days ago. Nothing changed on my side, same devices, no updates.

I subscribed for access, was charged after the free trial, and am unable to access as a subscriber. I reached out to customer service for support, and never heard back from anyone. Will be disputing the charge and deleting the subscription.
