    I wouldn't give any stars. I can't get it to work. Says I need admin permission.

    this app was working really well, until my assistive trainer gave me an extension to load, turns out it was a trail only for 2 days.........now it has stopped working, with only the play, pause, and stop buttons working. still hear the reading, but it's not very accurate. I really don't know what to do, need it for work and uni.
