UPDATE: American Printing House for the Blind (APH) has issued a warning that there are connection issues for the Mantis and Chameleon braille displays after upgrading to iOS 14.4; and recommend that you turn off automatic updates and do not upgrade until a resolution has been found:
Update 10 February: We have now received clarification from Candywriter regarding their recent takedown notice for our App Directory entries for the BitLife games. We have been informed that the issue was caused by a wrongful flagging of AppleVis as an "APK website."

We are grateful to Candywriter for rectifying this mistake and for their prompt resolution of the matter.
