Is broken rating range setting fixable?

Hi, I found threads that show I am not the only one for who the "rating range" setting gets completely ignored. I am getting really frustrated because I keep getting opponents of way different rating, and the abort button is broken to boot! On the first move the app is supposed to allow abort, but often it only allows resign. It also switches your abort to a resign if a move is made by your opponent during the lag waiting for the abort.

This stuff on top of the incredible difficulty this app has reconnecting to wifi so that it is very common for me and my opponent to both have the countdown at the same time is really getting intolerable. I wonder how many of my wins and losses are from this reconnection problem that never gets fixed.

If you abort too often, as a percentage of recently completed games, you're not allowed to abort anymore and must play or resign.

I have the same issue. This just started for me. Did you ever find a fix?
