[NTLK] Question about the Einstein Newton emulator for Android

[Clu DaBard]

Installed version einstein-2020.4.13.apk and though the quit command doesn’t work (and hard crashes the app) when you quit the app it not only brings up the previous load of Newton apps and the flash, but also updates with new packages in the Einstein folder.  Nice!  :D

Seems to loose the time and date though.

Will tinker with this some more.
