Great

The pay version does what the free version did a few days ago before I accidentally uninstalled it, and it was switched to a "lite" version. My kid likes it, so I bought it, but $3.53 is too much for what it does. Even $2.99 and I wouldn't have balked - it just feels excessive compared to comparable programs.
