MY APOLOGIES FOR BUG: CRASH ON STARTUP.
I work as fast as I can to resolve this. If you are on iOS 4.x, you will need wait for the next update. If you are on iOS 5.x you could try a possible work around. One user reported that deleting the app, and then reinstalling fixed the crash. After doing this, press 'RESTORE PURCHASES' to get your premium content back.
