Got a whole slew of threads about it in the HELP forum.

There's a main thread for Apple ioS users here:
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...er-on-ios.html

We're locking this thread because we can't monitor and update multiple threads regarding the same concern. The referenced links above are there in case there's useful information to share.

Thanks.
