Reversi (Othello) Online for Android

Reversi (or "Othello") is a two-player strategy game where the players take turns to put counters on an 8x8 square board. When a player places a counter, it captures any of his opponent's counters which become "sandwiched" by his own. Captured counters change colour to indicate which player has captured them.

Each turn, you must place a counter on a square that results in at least one opposing counter being captured. Occasionally a player may not be able to make a legal move in which case he will forfeit his turn.

The game ends when all the squares on the board are filled with counters. The winner is the player who has the most counters showing.

As far as I am aware, Reversi Online works fine on Android 4.0.

game quits for no reason
Lately every time I run the app and select 'play online' or 'profile', the app exits without warning. It seems to happen whenever an ad doesn't show up at the bottom of the screen after a few seconds. If the ad does show up on wither screen it works ok, but if I then play a game online, it quits immediately after i hit "done".

I will have a look at the ad service to see of there is something wrong with it.
Update: I have released a new version (V1.49) which should fix this problem.

also...
Wins and losses don't seem to be registering on my profile anymore.

Are you looking at your profile screen, or the online rankings page? There are sometimes synchronization issues which means the ranking table may not be up-to-date, but the value in your profile should always be up-to-date after a ranked match.

more than 1 game?
Can I play more thsn 1 game against online opponent?

It's not currently possible automatically to do this. The only way to do it is if both players reconnect, and accept challenges from each other again.
