New app is terrible. Old addition was easier to read. If I did not have it on another device I would cancel.

This site is terrible. The old one worked much better. It jumps around, locks up and will not enlarge without jumping off of the page most of the time. I wish they would bring back the old version.

When I realized they had been charging me twice a month, for same thing, I called and they said they’d take care of it. They couldn’t issue a refund, but they would not charge me for a year. However, they are still charging me.
