Do not use an iPad with TTRS!

This app is completely worthless on an iPad. I downloaded it and uninstalled it, tried logging in for so long, did system updates. Customer service was at a loss. I bought a new iPad just in case, nope. Finally, I got a Chromebook and use the web version and it works just fine. Only use the web version, I’ve wasted month on trying. And I have a Chromebook just for TTRS. I should have just gotten a different program.
