Airpush and negative reviews for Call Faker

Hi,
I'm posting this because of some of the negative reviews that I've received for this app due to the incorporation of Airpush advertisements into it.

I have been completely up front about Airpush and have made no attempt to hide that it's in the app. I've put a very obvious disclaimer in the description for the app that Airpush is used, and if people have an issue with this, they can either download the paid version (with no ads) or download another fake call app.

I do not consider these advertisements to be obtrusive; with my app, you receive 1 ad per day in your notification bar, and in no way are you obligated to click on it - you can simply clear it and it goes away. If you click on it, that's fine too.

However, some people have a real problem with this. All I can say is that I enjoy creating these apps but they do take quite a lot of work and time to develop and test in order to produce something of quality. Therefore, I do not feel it's too much to ask to keep these advertisements in the free version of the app.

Hopefully you'll understand where I'm coming from. Thanks for your support!
