Ari Budiman
"This app has worked great for years, until the December update. Now, it is worthless. When I open it, it automatically starts a download of files, which stalls. Then tries to install the downloaded files, and stalls. I've uninstalled it twice and reinstalled it, same thing. It went from being my go to sky app to needing to be uninstalled and not reinstalled. Update. Tried on my new galaxy phone. It won't even open. Shows a nanosecond of opening screen and crashes. I loved this app! đ"
