Used to be good

When I first got the app it was great. Now pictures, articles, videos don’t show up or work. I keep the app on my phone in hopes that it will magically start working again. Seems like that’s a pipe dream.

Tip Genius? Not

Search a tip. Click on it. Not the tip you searched for.

Waste of money

I half expected more than hacks, jokes, or common sense for the paid version. The search feature errors out, and I can find nothing on countertops (for example).

Displeased
HopefulDIYer

Very displeased to say the least. Free version was great so I ended up paying the $4.99 for the full version. Now every time I open the app it says "checking for update." Was hoping to get a lot more tips but now I can't access anything. I have only been able to access the all be deleting it and then re-downloading it...have to do that every time if I want to access any of the tips.

Need help

Every time that I open the app it spins on "checking for update". Deleting it and downloading it again works for a short time. This is happening on both my iPad and iPhone. Please fix, otherwise I like the app.
