Square appointments: How do I dismiss the setup guide?

The title of this thread has been edited from the original: square appointments continue setup in app

 

I am testing square appointments for someone.  At the moment, they are only interested in the scheduling (setting up lesson appointments).  I have gone through the setup on the computer, I now want to go to the android / IOS app.  At the bottom of the calendar there is a "continue setup" bubble that takes me to primary setup - "view your booking site", "get setup to take payments", "order your free reader" ...  At this time I don't want to setup payments, order reader, etc.  How do I get beyond this or does that bubble always remain?

I asked support.  They said there was an option to dismiss the setup guide.  They said to logout and back in.  I did.  Click on "continue setup", then 3 dots and dismiss guide.  It worked.

@todivefor - I definitely understand the annoyance of having those notification bubbles there, but I'm afraid they cannot be removed and will remain there.

I have tried this multiple times, log out, log in, and tried a different browser - I have no option to dismiss the guide. There are no dots, on every page, the Setup Guide opens on the right side of my screen and I have to manually dismiss it each time. There are only 2 options left (Subscribe to Plus and Build Item Catalog) - with no option to skip these.

 

However, I do not want to subscribe right now and I have already built an item catalog... I only have an X in the upper left of the guide which is a very temporary dismissal of the guide. It will just come back at random. There really needs to be a more direct way to close this annoyance for good without jumping through hoops.

THIS. I am stuck in the loop of not being able to complete setup because of these exact same 2 steps.
