Keeps crashingThe moment I downloaded the app it crashed. After waiting a while it crashed again. Waited some more. Crashed again. Still haven't been able to use it.

MercenariosEu tinha comprado o app a alguns anos atrás, o plano VITALÍCIO. Agora mudei de celular e o app atualizou e eles querem que eu pague pelo PRO de novo, sendo que eu já comprei o app a anos atrás. Não me importa se vocês atualizaram, se inventaram mais coisa pra tirar dinheiro do povo. Se eu comprei EU…

Would not let me useAnytime I selected a photo, the try this/continue menu would pop up and then the app would close. Everytime! App was completely unusable.
