### 1/5 — Won’t load, About page is a spam site

*2026-03-15, version 1.46.1*

I downloaded this app and tried on my iPhone and tried to create an account, first with Sign In With Apple and then with an actual email address. I just got a something went wrong message even after restarting my phone. 
The about page on the login screen goes to a spammy webpage rating different gambling sites. Steer clear until this is fixed.

### 1/5 — Discontinued and no longer supported

*2026-03-08, version 1.46.1*

Was a great app when in active development. It was sold and discontinued and is no longer supported. It should be removed from the App Store.

### 1/5 — Shutdown in 2024. Can't create an account

*2026-02-24, version 1.46.1*

The backend site that drives the app was shut down in late 2024! You cannot even create an account. Worse it takes you to a gambling site when you click on the built in "Read more" link

Should not even be in the app store!
