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
Show 1 more
  • 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.
