This app is a scam

This app is fake is doesn’t work is a scam.

Time saver. Great for quoting articles.

I use this a lot for quoting articles and links all in one action. It’s lovely.

If I could make a feature request or two, it’d be nice to have a toggle or way to URL encode the text (like turn spaces into %20). Useful for things like the upcoming text fragment linking feature in safari (originally in chrome) which doesn’t support spaces.

Also, if I could import/export my settings between devices (or iCloud syncing) :)

Thank you for such a handy tool!

Works for Obsidian

It took a while for me to figure out how to use it (I’m pretty dense). However, It’s perfect. I would suggest a brief video showing how to do this.

A Must-Have for Link Sharers!

At last, something similar to the much-beloved desktop Firefox browser extension CoLT! I’ve been fiddling around with JavaScript bookmarklets to accomplish this, but because iOS is so protective of the clipboard, all of the bookmarklet solutions are a journey.

This does exactly what it says on the tin, and it’s customizable to boot! I don’t even remember if I paid for this extension, but if I didn’t …I would’ve!

Two feature requests, if possible, to really make this stellar:

① %s — to capture the selected text (Thanks for adding %d for the <𝚖𝚎𝚝𝚊> description!)

② When specifying HTML, it’d be awesome if I could also set an option to copy to the clipboard as rich text (text/html mime type). This would allow to to paste a nicely formatted link into GMail, and etc.

Nicely done, thanks for the app!

Works as expected.

Initially the apps icon did not appear in the action menu, however, after restarting my iPad it appears. A simple but useful tool.
