Abandonware, do not buy.
Do not buy. Abandonware. Do not expect timely or helpful developer support.
Broken for over a year with zero developer response before he decided to go “lol it was Apple” despite his numerous competitors never having the issue. Finally gave up after months of silence from the developer and bought a competitor.
iOS 17.7, 17.6, whatever version he wants to blather about (he can’t even keep the version number straight in his replies) fixed nothing.
It’s been months with zero response from him, and now suddenly two responses in a row in two days? Sounds like someone’s passive income suddenly needed attention.
No idea if iOS 18 fixes it because I’ve LONG since moved on.
Developer decided to push replies insisting it’s not his fault he ignored his own broken application for a year.Show less552HsB5k2K
Developer Response
It’s not iOS 17 it’s iOS 17.6 specifically that fixed your problem. See the official release notes from Apple https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safari-release-notes/safari-17_6-release-notes “Fixed an issue where Safari Web Extension background pages would stop responding after about 30 seconds. (127681420)” That fixes it. It was a bug by Apple.Love the App…but
I have always used this app and love it. it’s free, it’s lightweight, it’s simple, doesn’t collect data and works good.
only issue is it uses/consumes battery a little i notice. i uninstall app and battery lasts a little longer but when install it back battery time decrease. otherwise it’s great app and thank you for making this app.
FEATURE REQUEST:
please always keep it small in size just as it is now and if possible please add PiP (picture in picture) mode for safari. I currently use an app called pipfier which is also lightweight and works but i would rather have it built into Dark Night app so i don’t have to download separate apps.
Thank youShow lessRS Shah
Gradually breaking down
Dev response: I already have iOS 18, and the issues weren’t resolved. It’s the same as before.
Update: lowering rating.. many sites have stopped working with it recently
I expect paid apps to be updated frequently but the developer has completely abandoned this app. So any bugs that show up over time will just never be fixed. It works well on most sites but many of them crash repeatedly while using, forcing the need to disable it. This is one of those bugs that will likely exist forever and the app will eventually be unusable. 3 stars though because it’s a huge help at night and couldn’t live without it.Show lessmrAssman
Developer Response
