We are raising this issue with Google and wish to assure users of this app that we will immediately refund any duplicate charges for in-app purchases in the highly unlikely event that any are ACTUALLY incurred.

KNOWN ISSUES: there are a couple of known issues with this app. If you’ve previously installed a version of this app then it’s possible that Option>Rotation Lock defaults to ‘portrait’. For ease of use this should be set to 'off'. This can be done by tapping on the icon. Also, there's no Settings option for the iDaptive Controls, which means that the opacity of the on-screen controls can't be changed. Consequently, they're invisible (indeed they're inactive) in landscape mode. There are probably other issues. We’re working on fixes for these issues and hope to include them in an early update.
