Button

The button section seems to not be work, other than that it’s really helpful!

Developer Response ,

Hi Bean Is Alive,
Thanks for your feedback about the button area, we've tested it and everything looks ok. If you are using a voice recording, just make sure you allow the app access to your microphone, otherwise that can't work. Also, we've given users the option to choose what image and text label they want their buttons to have, which means you'll need to set those when you add a new button. There is total flexibility to make the buttons look exactly how you need and our TwinklCares team would be happy to help you with this. They are available 24/7 so don't hesitate to reach out to us :)
