Fun if not for life glitch

So overall the game is quite fun. Its an addictive little solitaire game and it has a lot of depth. As many have said, its also a giant ad machine and expect to be bombarded. I would pay to remove these ads, could the developer please add this feature? Additionally in every other game I own if you run out of lives you can exit the game as you wait to refill them- alas not the case here. For some reason it just stops the clock when you leave. This must be a glitch. Please please fix this nonsense as it makes the game almost unplayable after a point.
