*** IMPORTANT ***
The app may force close when playing a category for the first time, this seem to happen more on Android 4.0+, maybe new thread is not starting as quickly as in previous version.

== Cause ==
Words not yet loaded into the database.

== Resolution ==
After selecting a category for the first time, wait a few seconds before playing, this will allow the background database loading routine to do its jobs, once the database contains some words for that category, subsequent play should be fine.
