— MORE ABOUT HEARST CASTLE —
Hearst Castle is a 165-room estate that sits on 250,000 acres near the remote seaside hamlet of San Simeon, California. It was a private getaway for the elite in the 1920s through 1940s, luring Hollywood stars, powerful political leaders, and renown literary figures such as Jean Paul Getty, Bernard Shaw, Calvin Coolidge, Winston Churchill, Charlie Chaplin, Gary Cooper, Jimmy Stewart, Cary Grant, and Marion Davies. It also contains one of the largest and most unique private collections that exists today.

Update Fail

The Hearst Castle app previously worked well on both my iPhone and on my iPad Mini. The larger images as seen on the iPad Mini were good and were easier on the eye. With the recent update, the app loaded fine on the iPhone but would not install on the iPad, giving a message that it was not compatible with the iPad. I deleted the app on the iPad and attempted a clean install. Now, with the same message, the app refuses to install on the iPad Mini even though the previous version had loaded and had worked fine. Please provide a corrected update so that, at least, I can get back to where things were before the recent update.
