🆘  TROUBLESHOOTING
═══════════════════════════════════

❓ "I can't find the app in Play Store"
   → Wait 15 mins after opting in, then try again. The Play Store
     sometimes takes a moment to recognize new testers.
   
❓ "It says the app isn't available in my region"
   → Reply to this thread — we'll sort it.

❓ "Lifetime Pro didn't activate"
   → It activates the first time the app talks to our server.
     Open the app and create one trip — it should kick in within
     a few seconds. If not, let us know.

Thanks for being here from day one. You're literally shaping what
YTC becomes. 🌍✈️
