### 1/5 — Poor quality product

*2020-04-27*

I bought this app a week ago. I also bought some apps and compared them together. Then I used Qi men dun Mia book to test them. Frankly speaking, this app is so bad. Year chart and day chart are wrong. It has no setting part like others. Don’t waste money to get it.

**Developer response:** So sorry this app didn’t meet your expectations. Hope you get a refund then. Do you mean JY’s books? If so, what dates are wrong?
