How long to download the Square Register App?

I have been trying to download the updated Square register app today.  I have an Iphone 4S, with a recently updated operating system.  I use Verizon and also have satellite WiFi in my home.  I was prompted to connect to Wifi which I did, now it is 2 hours later and the little Square Icon on my phone says "waiting" under it and I cannot open the App.  Should this be taking this long?     I have a craft show in about two weeks and I'm trying to update everything for the chip reader so that I will be ready to go.

 

Thanks so much.

Something is definetly not going right.  If the icon just says waiting then it hasn't even started downloading the app.

Well, progress is being made I guess.  It now says "loading" so I hope this means that it is actually in process of getting the App.  Thanks for the reply.

Were you able get the app installed @mythkeeper

 

Generally speaking, the app should download within seconds if you have a stable internet connection. Let me know if you're still having trouble!

Hi everyone.  Thanks for the replies - I did get the App loaded but I had to take my phone to work to do it.  Also, and I'm so excited to report, I just got a new IPhone 6S Plus so that I can see my Square register screen more clearly.  I love this phone and when we re-loaded my backup from ICloud the App came across.  The next challenge is to get the Square Chip Reader to work, but that is a chore for this weekend.  I have to Shows in June, so am looking forward to getting everything up and running.

 

Thanks again for your replies and help.  And, I'm happy to be a part of the Square community.
