Are my family and I safe now?
As some of you might have heard, there's this creepy iPhone app called Talking Angela, who is Talking Tom's girlfriend. It asks you really personal questions like where you live, do you have guard dogs, where do your dogs sleep ect, inappropriate sentences (it's told children to slip into a coma) and more. Some people have been burgled from giving out too much info. It also takes secret pictures and videos of you. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP. ITS Really DANGEROUS FOR ADULTS AND CHILDREN. Please DON'T! (its being investigated by the police, I hope it gets removed and the culprits are found as soon as possible, dirty perverts!
So, I went on it on Facebook to see if it'd say anything. I didn't say anything like where I lived and stuff. I don't have a webcam so it couldn't take any secret videos or pictures. It asked me how old I was but I just said "ok" to pass it. I deleted, blocked and reported the app, but can they track my ip address or something? I'm really scared, worried and paranoid.
Yes they can track your IP, with this they can get info on your location, your internet provider and phone number. You might want to lock your doors and cover your windows at all times. Have 911 on speed dial and don't answer the door to anyone unless you are positive who it is.

The app is safe. People enjoy spreading false rumors.

- Went to a repair shop for Iphone 6 screen and battery replacement and now screen is unresponsive and loose? Should I go back and have them fix it? The battery is fine but the screen response time is so bad and it lags which it didn't do before. Also they screwed in the screen bad. I can see into the phone bad. Will they fix it for free?
