Some people have reported the app freezing their device. This is not 'Freezing' but an expected update of the app when it is first installed. The screen will be blank for up to a couple minutes (depending on your internet speed connection) and then will load the app. Do not close the app or force quit during this update and all will load fine. In the next update, I will add a loading screen to alert you the app is downloading.
