Ratings and Reviews
Potential
Install is clean and setup is minimal... too minimal, subtle to the point of confusing out of the box experience.
Confusing in that at launch, all this app does is slip a menu in the crouded menu bar on the right. The application really shoudl open a window or such.
Completely missed the menu addition and just about threw the app out as a partially working version.
Developer Response ,
Thanks for your review! I have addressed your concern, with the latest update the app will automatically show the preferences window on first launch.
Nice app if you're tech savy, otherwise, impossible..
I bought this because I need a URL shortener, and all this does is state "Failed to create Shortio link, Invalid domain name". I have no idea what that means, nor do I have any idea of what URL shortener services are. I tried to select one and it opened to a list of API Tokens, which led to more time spent messing around with technical information I don't have time to learn about. There was no indication that this app is intended for those who have knowledge beyond what's need for a Safari extension. Had I known I would have passed it by, as it is, it's useless.
Awesome extension
I love this so much! The only way it could be better is if it said "Link copied to clipboard" when you press the extension. It confused me at first because it looked like it didn't do anything. Also, it'd be nice if the extension preferences could be set in the extension preference pane of Safari, or by right-clicking on the extension. It took me a while to figure out where to modify the preferences for this particular extension.

Thank you!
