### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-05-18*

I was a regular user of the original Hydra and was hesitant about buying this app, as the other one worked perfectly.

However this has been completely re designed, it’s super fast and integrates flawlessly with many other apps. Extremely happy with this

### 5/5 — Excellent!!

*2026-05-13*

If you have the original Hydra, and you think… is this update worth the money?  Yes!! A resounding, “Yes!”  This is a complete rebuild of the app, and I was able to set up my first two templates in a blink of an eye.  Go buy it from Ellusionist’s site, get your early bird (or whatever they are calling it) discount.  This is good stuff.
