No longer opens files
This latest update seems to have broken the app. Won’t open puz files or crashes and quits when trying to load.

It was fine the way it was
Like others, I paid to “upgrade” to this new version because many of the providers were no longer loading in the old one. Some of the interface changes are annoying, but I can live with them. The real problem is the leaderboards. In short, they don’t work. I can get to the screen where it shows the top few times, and mine, but clicking on the all times button brings up a blank screen, 100% of the time. I tried to reach out to the developer for a fix, and was ignored.
