en Why is this even allowed to eexist on google's app store? They are supposed to vet the apps. This thing doesn't do anything whatsoever.

It does exactly what it says it does. Easy-peasy. BUT the thing that cuts the usefulness half is the fact that as soon as you scroll, it stops its function and everything on the page moves again. I'm not a programmer. So, I'm ignorant to just how difficult it actually might be to fix that. But OMG, I really wish I could scroll through a frozen page.

Works great! Took me a while to figure out that I was restarting the animations by pressing Esc too often - thought you had to press it again after each time you scrolled. What a relief!! Seriously, WHO wants animations and WHO thinks they're a good idea??
