This is one of my favorite activities to do whether it may be on vacation or simply staycation no matter what it may be it’s a great app that has been good to me and passed through generations and caches are passed from owner to owner with each owner being proud of what they made this app builds a community and whether you join that or not it’s up to you

Can’t even get into the app because it says every user name I try is unavailable and gives no option to choose from. Unfortunately, I am going to have to delete this app for that purpose because I can’t even log in.

I love all of it, however lately I’ve been getting messages from unknown people acting more like this is some sort of meet up or dating site. I have tried reporting it but I don’t get anything back like how to block and delete the message
