APP stopped working

Downloaded the App and paid the $4.99 for the PRO version and after a few months the App stopped working. When opened it would say finding your location and sit there with a spinning ICON.

I deleted the App and downloaded again and the App started finding the location again but we lost the PRO version.

Ghosted By Support, Paid Version Inaccessible

Abandoned by the developers. Upgrading a free download to pro just results in an error stating invalid product ID. Cannot restore previous pro purchase. Website still says copyright 2016.

If you’re not going to provide support to those who actually paid for your app, take it off the App Store.

WhyI love this app

I love this app because it’s always exactly what satellite is and it also allows me to adjust my satellite dish to link to the satellite so I don’t know what the link to the side like whatever you say when you’re actually the satellite that’s all by and that’s my review
