Great until most recent update – Shark Bridge Card Game Review

My dad played tournament bridge since before I was born and had me holding 13 cards in my hand at age 6 (I am a small woman with small hands as an adult). After my parents divorced I learned the basics of bridge but never got to put in the time to get good. My husband and I got married 5 years ago and in that time we have both tried to brush up on bridge skills but had trouble finding other people to play who didn't already have people to play with. Then we found shark bridge a couple weeks ago and suddenly we were both so motivated and able to learn. It was thrilling. We were saving hands to talk over with my dad at Thanksgiving left and right. It seriously made bridge so much of a more attainable goal for us and we were delighted. And then we updated the app. Now we cannot use it at all. We have an incessant pop up for everything we click that says we must pay 19.99 to use the app at all. Why? Why would you do this to us? We are graduate students on pittance stipends. We don't have $40 a year to pay for bridge. Honestly I would write it off as a greedy world except we can't even access the hands we saved to show my dad for thanksgiving. That made it personal, guys. :( please make it so we can play again!! Please?!
