Comments
I have beenusing this app since it came out and it is really nice. The one really problem I have encountered is when trying to view albums in poor signal areas. Please can we be able to add albums to the phone like the ipad app.
Hi Jo, yes, that would be awesome. We'll definitely look into the possibilities for that feature. Thank you for your feedback!
That´s exactly what i`m looking for...
