Not what I wanted
Does not have the games as shown in the supplies images, which is why I wanted it. A waste!
Ads in this expensive of a paid app???
Hate to new updates Mobisystems has rolled out on iOS. There are two buttons now to promote the developers other apps on the bottom of the screen. Which arent removable and on an iPhone 4s size screen, take up about 1/8th of the total screen.
