Old Legend

I hope this gets updated. Itโ€™s always a neat memory to come back to. Well done way back then and still is great today. Best type writer.

The Dev of this app is crazy

Try to inquire what the โ€œcard galleryโ€ is actually a front for, and the developer goes crazy.

Needs higher res exports
