    1. Due to network problems, you’re getting this error. Try it on any other network provider and it should work fine.

      Thanks !

    1. You can use any File Manager app to install the app.

      When it’s installed, simply head to Menu and you should find the icon of the app, just tap on it.

      Hope it helps!

    1. It works greatly. Just about an hour ago, I downloaded a video using the app and I hadn’t had any issue. What problem are you facing exactly?
