All I can say is: there better be a demo version. Offer ten scans, pop up alerts every minute, limit some functions... Somehow, though, they need to release a lite version. If I'm going to drop half the cost of a new iPod Touch on one app, I want to be absolutely sure it will meet my needs first. If they offer only the $99 app with no way of testing it, well, that's just a bad idea. On Jul 6, 2014, at 6:44 PM, Feliciano G <theblindman...@hotmail.com> wrote:
