Теперь ваша приложуха пытается открывать любой  вав и мр3 вместо умолчального плеера ios. Зачем это? Обратно поменять не дает. Только удалением вашей приложухи. Это случилось впервые,  использую лет 7. ios 26.4.2

Господа, а как так получилось, что было полнофункциональное приложение, которое я покупал за деньги, а теперь стало урезанное с подпиской? Это как понять? Жирный минус вам за это, так делать не следует.
 Запустите другое приложение, если хотите стричь бабки на подписке. А за это я деньги заплатил, будте так любезны оставить все функции на месте без всяких подписок.

А пока что - это просто днище.
