FAQ
- I can not download the database, what should I do?
- In rare cases we have received complaints from users that they can not download the database. Here are recommendations that have solved that issue for them:
- Disable and then enable your WIFI and try to download the database
- Uninstall and then reinstall aFarsi and try to download the database
- Why are ads showing at the bottom of the application?
- We show advertisement to cover the application development and maintenance expenses. We are also considering a paid version that would not display these ads.
- Why isn't the database bundled with the appliction similar to versions 1.0 and 1.1?
