*2025-07-07, version 0.9.6*

The new 2.0 ver is useless and doesn’t work on iPhone at least and won’t allow users to use the old version.

### 1/5 — Gl

*2025-06-20, version 0.9.6*

Come on Worldpac , you seriously can do better !
Just try your own app and you will see that its just no user friendly at all !
You should be able to use it without turning the phone and let it be more simple and smooth on rolling menus!
This one looks like the pc version but on super small screen while using your finger trying to select one thing on a menu that has 10 options

### 1/5 — Please update the app

*2025-06-10, version 0.9.6*

Please update the app, it's horrible to use right now. Autofocus for camera doesn't work, looking up parts is very inconvenient.

### 1/5 — New update

*2025-04-15, version 0.9.6*

*2024-11-13, version 0.9.6*

Does not open

### 1/5 — Not working on ios17

*2024-08-02, version 0.9.6*

Seems to be a common problem with the app but I can only use the app one time then I have to delete the app completely and redownload it to be able to open the app again. When I first download the app I can open it and log in normally but once I close the app out or leave the app screen I am no longer able to open it back up, it takes deleting the app and redownloading to be able to log back in one more time.
