Hello Elizabeth: I too am surprised at the way this matter was handled. I am 
also excited to buy this app, but was awestruck and dismayed by the abrupt 
answer to your question. I expected a benign answer, and was immediately 
surprised by a confrontation. There may be those of us who do not know about the 
Apple this website/Podcasts, and, may not know about the user guide for this 
app. I do not know the answer to your question, but, I am sorry that you were 
not successful in having your questions answered in a kind, and efficient 
manner.
Do not let this experience to tear you from buying this app. It truly is a 
lifesaver, and I would recommend the app to anyone who needs it. Regards
