Reboot Games Zaparoo cards

Hey! I've been quietly working on something for ages now and I think it's ready for people to try out. Zaparoo can now distribute games. Not launch ROMs you already have on your SD card, but actually download and install new games over the internet. You tap a card and the game appears on your device and launches. That's it.

Pro Purchase Issue on Android

Some Android users are reporting that their Pro purchase is no longer active after updating. First, try to go to Settings > Advanced and press the "Restore purchases" button. If that doesn't work, email me directly at support@zaparoo.com and I'll sort it out.

The Zaparoo App v1.10.1 update is now available in the App Store and Play Store. The App now has optional accounts via Zaparoo Online, over-the-air updates, various NFC handling fixes, and automatic device discovery on your local network.
