This happens to me as well. What is the fix?

[billsliu]

I failed too, it looks like this project is an abandoned project.

Hi folks, it's not abandoned but it was deprioritized for awhile. We are in the process of updating all the apps to make sure they still build and should have an update out soon. Thanks for the reports!
