Good but not perfect

Pros:
- It is a simple and neat way to keep track of snippets in multiple different languages. Very easy to use.
- iCloud integration with a single click. So far it has been working and updating perfectly across my macs.
- You can organize the snippets pretty much however you’d like with folders, subfolders, languages and so on.
- Pretty user interface, a variety of great themes (prefer the standard Xcode one), pretty icon.

Cons:
- Some features don’t work correctly atm. On both of my macs running this app, the menu bar drop down does NOT get updated when you add new snippets. If you have 2 snippets, write a new one (total of 3 now), there will still be only 2 snippets in the menu bar dropdown. If you delete one and add a new one, you will still see the old one in the menu bar dropdown. Only fix I have found is to quit the application and relaunch it, which is quite a hassle to do every time you write a new snippet. This issue appears on both machines.
