### 5/5 — I can’t believe it’s free

*2025-05-03*

I’ve been looking for a bookmark app with ai capabilities for a long time

### 3/5 — What happened??

*2024-06-10*

Well first of all I was in the middle of writing this review and I had to switch apps and lost everything I was writing 😖 i think I found this app through AppRaven or else i regularly watch a couple YouTubers that share all things AI/iphone/App Store related…. Anyway I am familiar with some of the things that AI is capable of but I’m not knowledgeable about writing code or anything like that so when I heard about this App it sounded great!!  I’m pretty resourceful but if this app did what it said it could save me a lot of time. One day I had spent easily 1-2 hours looking into various treatments for a disease and I am not in the science or healthcare field so a lot of what I was reading was pointless but then I thought of Snapshot!!  I decided to give it a try and I tried it first on an article that was multiple pages of a scientific journal that I had just read…. Well I couldn’t believe it!!  Within seconds it came up with a summary that was maybe 3 short paragraphs long and it was 100% accurate in the summary of the article!!  I was speechless, I had to share it immediately with my partner first showing him all I had read, then showing him what the app did and he was speechless too!!

Now today I go on and I can’t get anything into the app to summarize??  There is only a few buttons throughout the app so I click the gear and it tells you how to go to website, then click share and choose snapshot. If snapshot isn’t there click for more then add it as an extension option…. Well it is not even showing up there!!  I went through my settings looking for the app under the main list of all apps and I’m still not seeing the app anywhere??  I’m going to try deleting and reinstalling and then maybe shut phone down completely but I’m really bummed it’s not working this app could have been a life changer for me. Maybe someone can help me. I don’t even see anywhere to go for any type of support besides what I explained.
