Bugs and requests
Text Message Sounds +
Reported bugs
6 issues- Not Working ???
- Literally, nothing happens.
- All I saw was an ad for a game, closed the ad and got a blank screen
- As soon as the app is opened it pops up with an add. Normally adds don’t bother me but when the x appears you can’t click on it, all is does is pop up with ‘copy’.
- Goes straight to a solitaire game app

- There is no way to see apps in iTunes any more so instructions are useless. Unless the developer has a new way of downloading these this app does not work.
