Don't update "Screens"

I have Screens installed, which I find to be a pretty decent wallpaper finder. I like using landscapes as wallpaper and it seems to have some good ones. I noticed today that there was an update available, but luckily read some of the latest comments before updating. Apparently, the "update" renders the app non-functional and just tells you to download Mabilo (sp?). I might just uninstall the app on principle, because that's pretty crappy of them. But I thought I'd warn others, in case anyone wanted to keep the app in a functional state.
 
Basically he teamed up with mabilo, all the wallpapers from Screens are available in the new app plus more...but I just saved the papers I like from screens and then deleted the app. I agree that the way he did it was weird, should have said in the description that the update will delete the app. It was confusing and a strange way to go about it.
