No sound

Does not work. Press play, no sound at all.

Case 1 Loop

The app is broken. You can go to the various cases but it will only read the audio for case 1 no matter which case you choose.
CClariglow777

Only plays first case audio…

App is useless.
MMUBuckeye

Only the 1st case is available

The audio is only available for the 1st case, the sweeping only changes the picture but not the audio
We read it ourselves, but would have been cool to have the audio. Too bad
