IT DOES NOT WORK They are also not restoring the purchase. ### 1/5 — Sehr enttäuschend… *2024-06-23, version 2.6* Generell an sich ist die App ganz in Ordnung. Nur das einzige Problem mit der App ist, dass die Controller zu klein sind und daher es einfach zu unangenehm und stressig ist die App zu benutzen. Wenn man etwas schreiben möchte, dann dauert es erst mal 3 Stunden, bis man ein Wort geschrieben hat und das Schlimmste ist man kann nicht mal einstellen, dass die Knöpfe größer werden ### 1/5 — Ohne Funktion *2024-05-31, version 2.6* Schmutz nur Werbung ### 1/5 — Ripped off *2024-05-25, version 2.6* Would not connect to tv, charged my Apple account for the free trial. Do not use!
