I haven't used the app in a while but I'm looking for a new one.

  My "payment info" is that I currently have a total net worth of 2 (two) crumpled $1 bills, and half a dozen Kyrgyz rubles from 1992.

  Do they mean the stars next to the timestamp? That just highlighting "new" comments.

  It's an asterisk if you're using the Sync app.
  
  edit: just realized where this was posted. Disregard.
