Helo, I can't restore my purchase license bouth on other device years ago. Pls help. Solved, I think I had pro version bought. Just saw it. I'll put that one :) thanks

Map constantly rotate. Too many false notifications. Adding same hazard by multiple users within certain distance at the same place should not be allowed, to avoid unnecessary multiple/ false notification. 2) adding during driving is dangerous. 3) Uses too much battery, there are different speed limits for buses trucks and cars. With a lot of difficulty, while moving I added many hazards, all deleted in updates

It was a very helpful app. But not working anymore. Android play notified it as harmful app & disabled. When I tried reinstalling after uninstalling, It doesn't open any more.
