Every time I try to open the app there's a pop up about account being suspended or cancelled? And then the app is automatically closed. I was really looking for a handy portable Buddhist app to help learn the truths. Hopefully there's a fix and I can change the star rating.
I have tried opening this and it keeps saying the account has been suspended or canceled. How can this be when I have just downloaded the app?
Doesn't work
Just loaded this and it states account suspended etc....I've not even launched it or registered with it so why would it do that :(
??? Downloaded it. Not working now.
Could you please add written pronunciation (phonetic) and full translations of the chants? This would greatly enrich such a practice! Also, adding more discourse on the teachings, for example, as in "noble eightfold path", how to implement such within daily life. Aside from these suggestions, or requests, I am enjoying the app!
