I have almost 15G of data stored in App Calc+, which is now inaccessible. I have cutes, videos and important documents. We purchased this App through the Apple Store platform, so Apple is responsible for that. It can't just throw all the responsibility to the developer. We need to put pressure on Apple they need to find an urgent solution!!! And respect your users.

Has anyone tried to go to an apple store and download a previous version on IOS that this app does work on--then transfer documents and pictures to new album and then update to new IOS---not sure if apple store can get us on an older IOS version once we update--but for people that have lost things they truly need then it is a suggestion

I’ve tried calling Apple . They said their not liable for other developers not updating their platform & I offered your suggestions with no outcome. They basically can not downgrade a version even for emergency. This is bullshit. They can’t even modify their own creation to help people in desperate need.

so basically I’ve no solution & lost about 386 photos videos and very sensitive documents.

Have you tried calling Apple support? At one time I did receive a notification on calf + asking to upgrade so I don’t lose my photos for a certain price a month / year. I declined the offer because I thought it should just be free as it has always been. Now I regret it beyond anything I’ve ever saved in my life.

mourn only hope is if they somehow decide to update their app to fit our iOS version.

what does it tell you when you click the app. If you can go to your purchase history & actually do find the app you’ll be able to find the developers information email phone etc. I can’t get in into mine. Good luck

I had this reply form the developers today



Hi,

Thanks for reaching out and for letting us know about this issue.

We have contacted Apple to request their assistance in resolving this. Unfortunately, we are unable to tell how long it will take, so we apologize in advance for the inconvenience.

While we are working on a permanent solution, there is a temporary one that have been reported to work by some users. You may try it by following the steps on this page: https://secret-calculator.com/offload.html

Hope this solves your issue for now. Regardless of the outcome, please make sure to not delete the app, as that will also permanently delete your documents.

Best,

One Wave

happy for you but the app no longer exists in the App Store my friend. How exactly did they manage to help you ? When I tap the app it says the developer needs to update the app to work with this iOS version. When I go to storage and offload & upload like some suggested it still says , the app is no longer available at the App Store.

some even suggested they’re contacting Apple to have a permanent solution. Please help us out by going to the app scrolling way down and post the developers email address and phone number please and thank you.

By pushing the app I got first also the same message that de developer should update the app.

then I also went to the App Store and noticed that the app is no longer in the App Store.

than I looked in my previous purchase list and there the app was still there and there the app asked for a update. That’s wat I did. After that I could open the app again.
