I purchased the app, years ago. Got a new phone a few years later. Cloud not restore the purchase . Even the free app, opens to only a single page. I see other similar reviews. Too bad. I liked having the info on my phone as a reference.

This app would honestly help me a lot in a emergency situation. It helped me know everything I need in a emergency. Also it gave me a compass in case I would get lost i would know were to go.

This feels like I am reading fun facts instead bits of useful information. “Important tool to have in the wild is a knife.” That’s common knowledge.
