A NOTE FROM THE PRODUCERS:

To ensure your new app does not crash, please reboot your iPhone or Touch after downloading the app.

If you do not hear any sounds, dont despair! Please check the mute button on the side of your iPhone or Touch to be certain it is not muted and check your settings to be sure the sound settings are set high enough to hear the sound! Most iPhones and Touches seem to have the sound volume set to mute or very low at the factory, so avoid audio disappointment and get those sound settings up!

If you have any questions or issues with the app, please let us know as we rely on your specific comments and requests as well as issues you have encountered to continue to improve the product. Going forward, we can’t promise to include every suggestion received, but we will do our best where feasible to include your suggestions in current or future releases. Thanks again for your support.
