Ratings and Reviews
works
so the app works fine. i normally use Noir but that app doesn't always work with websites that have colored UI because Noir just darkens the colors and it sometimes looks weird.
i'm a bit uncomfortable about why this app wants to connect with a website online, but it works fine without connecting and the app itself doesn't track. it's also free.
Good app, great developer
I downloaded specifically so I could rate and review. No, I’m in no way associated with anyone or anything regarding the app. I’m in no way being compensated for this review (or any review for that matter). I’m sure it works fine over time and if it doesn’t, I’ll be sure to edit. Why do I feel confident in this? Because the dev has thoroughly answered all the 1&2 star “complaints”. I’m in an industry highly dependent on reviews, as well. It’s rare that I receive anything less than a 5, but it happens. When I looked a week ago, I had just passed the 13,000 mark. I’ve noticed one correlation that I feel qualified to relate here: dumb people give the worst ratings. They don’t understand something, it makes them angry and they need to assign blame because they also don’t understand they’re brain is the problem. It results in unfair reviews that can greatly affect the lives of those who have put in countless hours of work. Usually, the person leaving a bad review DIDN’T READ THE INSTRUCTIONS. Some of us don’t have to, but if you’re a slowpoke, take the time to read before 1 starring and looking like a moron in a public forum.
After one week of using got stuck on…
Got stuck on “on switch” on every web page after one week of use and had to delete the app because the options page wouldn’t even open. I have a lot of tech experience. I have programmed before. I have worked out kinks in websites with my old college tech support when they needed help. Could not figure out how to troubleshoot and get it to work even after deleting and reinstalling or turning it off and on in the safari extensions menu. The website still wouldn’t pull up and let me change the options to even see why it was stuck on so I couldn’t see any of my webpages because they were all greyed out when I have this app installed. Needs troubleshooting on the developers end and then I will update my review.
