Ah the shimmer.care/indy site is a subpath for our main site (shimmer.care) which uses all of those scripts, but you're right that some of them aren't necessary for indy's site. We'll look into how to separate the two so cookie management is more straightforward for indy's site as this is a separate app still.

The other co-founder and cto here, we just made the updates to the site so it should reference "pricing" in the subscription plans section! Really appreciate the suggestion here.

Also for the blank screen, I wasn't able to reproduce either but the quiz is an embedded Typeform. There may be a plugin/extension enabled on your browser that could be blocking it. What browser are you using and are you able to try viewing it on incognito?

Thank you for letting us know! It does seem like that may have been the issue and we'll be looking more into how we can improve that with the team, feel free to DM us within the admin chat if you notice it still later on as well.

Thank you so much for signing up and really looking forward to your feedback about your experience on our platform! What Android device are you using for our app?

We'll definitely investigate on our backend and see if we can reproduce the stuttering on our Android test devices as well. You can always email support@shimmer.care or message the Shimmer admin account directly within the app and we'll make sure to log your bug and prioritize it with the team after investigating!

Hmm so when you logged in you couldn't move past the splash screen the first time? I can take a look at our backend to see what the issue may be, but if you'd like we can communicate via our support email at support@shimmer.care to help get this issue resolved sooner
