Could this be because Apple was granted a patent on the exact functionnality?

Have a good one, everyone...

Although that email is for a FREE version, there's still a PRO version available which removes the ads found in the FREE version of this app......meh

The Jared Company is a bunch of lousy spammers. Avoid even their free apps at all costs.

Agreed +9000!

With all the discussion on the forums of this company's questionable products, I'm surprised folks still get their apps.
I stay away.

It seems I misinterpreted the email. I thought I had a good piece of news on my hand...

Sorry, guys... Didn't want to toot their horn... :\

EDIT: If the mods want to delete the thread, by all means, go for it...

[qbnkelt]

Mouse, I don't think anyone was slamming you! No need to apologise! There is a lot of information which would show these guys to be quite a problem in terms of shoddy security. You probably hadn't seen that info.

[MousePad]

Thanks

I didn't feel like ppl were slamming me either... I just wanted to apologize for my haste, and lack of understanding...

I'm not one of the company's fans, and don't want to come across as pushing their products... I really thought they were reacting to the patent Apple got recently...

[BigBadWulf]

Bloody JaredCo! I recommend filtering them out of your inbox, cause they'll never go away.
