Thank you Allison! I figure everyone has their opinion, & it doesn't change my day any either way. I've been using iOS forever too, and am always learning new tricks.

Why do people feel the need to comment on things when the comment is negative? I have used an iPhone for years and with all app updates I didn't know how to do this. Thanks!! Love all your recipe guides.

Possibly to most, but after two friends called asking me if I knew how to do it, I made this. Thanks for the feedback.
