The app will synchronize with the Market and restore every donation you made.Permissions:- SMS permissions are needed to write to the INBOX.- Read contacts is needed to show the contact name in the list.- Internet/Network is needed to show Ads. No other network communication is done.- Billing is required for donations.If you have any issues with the app, before posting a 1-star comment, contact me on G+ (https://plus.google.com/115133497526444505927/posts) and I'll try to help.
