Hi Sandy, Thank you for such kind words. it gives me a big boost to continue and add features to Astreos :)
I didn't see your email in the list on my backend. Were you able to send the contact form? you can alternatively send me an email directly so I can add you. Also, just to check, what iphone version do you have?
