Terrible App

Terrible, good idea, but could not set product price, expenses did not show, DO NOT INSTALL THIS APP UNLESS YOU ARE PRANKING SOMEONE, the 5 star review is not true, I only did it so this would show up on the product. Just as a reminder DO NOT INSTALL

No hay mejor App de punto de venta

Esta app es una maravilla, gracias al programador nunca me ha dado fallos, funciona a la perfección, la importancia y exportación de datos es perfecta y puedes exportar a excel, hacer tus propias notas con Dreamwever y en fin pensaron en todo, usuario de años y sigo muy contento. Gracias

Not working now

Since my iPad updated itself last night to 26.2 the ring it up HD stopped working. I push on the icon and the screen goes black then a couple of seconds later it goes back to the Home Screen. Is there any way we can get this fixed.
