The App no longer saves recordings!
In the last month or so (March-April 2025), the App changed — it no longer saves my recordings! This appears to coincide with the rollout of a “Pro” feature that you have to pay for. But I already paid for the app last year. I feel cheated :(
Really, a nickname!
Disappointed
