  - 1★ 2026-10-05, Alan: FIX THE AUDIO!!!!! STILL NO AUDIO ON TABLET VERSION OF THIS APP AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS!!!!! Whoever manages development and updates for this app should be fired. The entire dev team should be fired. Audio has been broken for months. Your link is useless and literally does not apply to audio at all.
