Bought pro before plus

I bought the pro version years ago and had to just now pay for plus because it won’t restore. Very frustrating because it’s a great app.

Simple but great

Super simple layout and so easy to use and unlike other apps I’ve tried, it doesn’t have pop up ads every 5 minutes just a barely noticeable banner
