    I checked out reviews on google store. The app doesn't work apparently when your near schools.

    Looks interesting. Might take quite a while to pick up though.

    So an app where you don't have pictures is almost exactly like an app which deals exclusively in pictures..... same way a Walrus is like a Toffee Crisp

    Back in the day we had sound without moving pictures as entertainment in the form of Radio. Nowadays we have moving pictures without sound in the form of animated gifs.

    I just wanted to say that.
