Amazing!

Love it, thank you so much you don’t know how helpful this is after I’ve been searching for something like it for years.

Response from developer

Thanks for the review! I'm glad you are pleased.

Works wonderfully!

This is just the app I’m looking for and it works very well. I love the extra options like making the replacement case sensitive. Very cool

Added on March 29, 2022 ------------ I was able to fix that bug. Please update as version 2.0.0 will be available in the AppStore probably within 3 days. ------------ I have never faced such a situation. So I need to know the situation completely. If you don't mind, I would like you to send me a list or screenshot of the site where the situation occurred and all the keywords you registered to my contact(matrixhelper2003@gmail.com or Twitter:@AppContact2022). Please note that this extension is also concerned with the presence or absence of invisible whitespace or line breaks before or after a word when replacing it.

Works, but process needs adjustments

This is a useful app considering i couldn’t find any others, however, I did struggle a bit with setting it up so i suggest putting more thorough instructions. Yet, i eventually figured it out. I use this for fanfiction to replace “Y/N”, i wish it worked on other apps aswell, but i understand it’s strictly for safari. Good idea, Good App, a few minor adjustments.

Thank you for the review. Regarding the opinion that the settings are unclear, I have added the setting instructions in the application. Please check it.

Could use improvements

This extension is pretty good, but has plenty of room for improvement.

It’s relatively easy to use, but the process of getting it set up is a little unclear. Opening the app tells you to go to Settings to turn on the extension, but what it doesn’t tell you is that you have to tell Safari to allow extensions on each page, and that you have to open the extension’s settings to add your word changes, rather than going back to the app. Honestly, it’s not that hard to figure out, but it would be nice if the app made it a little clearer.

I primarily use word replacers like this for fanfiction; y/n is annoying to read over and over again and it totally breaks the immersion. For this, it works pretty well. If there’s a period or question mark attached you have to make separate configurations for that, but that’s fine. I personally also use the word replacer to replace pronouns - most fanfiction is geared towards girls and as a guy, it’s kind of annoying and jarring to have to read she, her, miss, over and over again, and again it breaks the immersion. This extension can be used for that, but it’s not great. It replaces words inside other words, so if you have ‘other’ it will replace it to ‘othim’ which is uh… not correct. I hope that can be fixed.
Otherwise, it’s a pretty good extension. Configuring words is fairly easy and it works consistently.

Added on April 1, 2022 ------------ I have responded to your request, please update to version 2.0.0. ------------ Thank you for the review. This is the first time in my life that I have received a review, so I am very happy. I thought that the specification that words within words are also replaced certainly needs to be turned off by language, so I will fix that in my spare time. In addition, I have corrected the issue of the unclear setting process. Please feel free to let me know if there are any strange specifications after the update. Thank you very much.
