Has to have an update to support iOS 17+

This app has always helped me a lot. I dk what to rate it at this point bc it depends on the developer now. It won't support my iPhone iOS 17. blah blah lol and I need it. The other apps in the store aren't what I need nor want and if I had the money to go buy a physical one, I wouldn't be writing this. So can you please update this? Thanks!
Ok so I have to rate it...
