Very sad right now *sniff*.

Have Marvin for iPad (absolutely love it). Been waiting anxiously for iPhone version. Found the direct link on Marvin website to install it. Paid for it (one of the very few apps I'll actually pay for... think it's worth more than $4.99 though), and just as I thought it was finished installing on my iPhone.... I get a message saying I need to upgrade to iOS6! (Ahhh!!).

I have iPhone 4, 32GB, iOS 5.1.1 (I also have iPad Mini, 64GB, iOS 6.1.2). Without going into a different topic tangent, there's ABSOLUTELY no way I'm going to upgrade my iPhone 4 to iOS6 because I HATE the AppleMap (extraordinarily inaccurate) and I rely on the native GoogleMap app.

Anyways, my compliments to the developers for putting together an absolutely fabulous app. I'm using it daily on the iPad. When my iPhone 4 dies (in a couple of years?), I'll be sure to get the Marvin for iPhone (hey, unless you guys want to tweak the code to make it work on iOS 5? No, I didn't think so *sniff* *tears*).

Cheers.
