lovely to listen

the app is so comfortable to use, and the readings are fantastic as well. there’s also a decent variety of works available which is great! only thing is i wish it was able to connect to my airpods, it seems like the audio doesn’t connect with bluetooth devices unfortunately:(

Disappointing

The concept is amazing, however it won’t let me connect to my Bluetooth, rather it be a speaker or my AirPods. I had so wanted to just relax and listen to this with my earphones and can’t.

Please Update

Simply that; please update this app for the new iOS. This is by far my favorite app and would be gutted to no longer have it for such a silly reason as this.
