Maybe you should highlight it with a red circle, because I still don't see it.

needs few circles around the X in the corner too.

bonus points for subtly hidden dick and balls, though

The problem is that they needed to have that big blue button be the download, and the "log in or sign up" should be that small, black text below it.

Better for the UX, and less of a dark pattern.
