Stay away from this app! It’s wrong and steals work

A new Baybayin app was released recently but stay away! #1) It’s inaccurate and #2) The developers used fonts by Norman de los Santos (Baybayin Modern Mono and Baybayin Modern Unicode). On his website and Deviant art it states:

© All of Nordenx Baybayin Modern Fonts are for personal and non-commercial use only. Please contact me at nordenx@yahoo.com for any inquiries about commercial use and licensing for branding, printing, publications, and/or other electronic applications.

I don’t mind the programming errors. It’s difficult to make an online translator. My Baybay.in went through many iterations so I understand but the theft part is the bigger issue. The developers are making money or released the app with the intent to make money via serving advertisements. This is the same issue as Walker Underwear Philippines ripping me off.

The developers are Vain Solutions

Here are some screenshots of the incorrect “translations”. Check it out here and feel free to leave reviews letting them know of the theft issue.
