this app sucks it will turn your reading tabs off when you try to read then it will say no no no

Absolute garbage. 99% of the time this is installed without the user being aware and it tracks your location, browsing data, email address, and has permission to change website data. It doesn't present anything beneficial to the user and is a waste of storage space. I'm surprised nobody has sued Promevo for invasion of privacy, for they should, if not I will.
