Was better back then

It still works and get’s the job done. But I’m using this app for years now and it’s getting worse every year. The screenshot in the App Store shows dark mode but it’s not working for me. It doesn’t use the global setting in macOS to apply dark mode and there’s no toggle in the app either. Also it’s full of annoying ads everywhere. When adding an account, in the sidebar, at the top when browsing images. I’d gladly pay for this app if it would receive some more love and would be ad free.

App has been perfect until now.

I reinstalled the app recently and have lost the option to Restore Purchases, it doesn’t appear in the sidebar settings menu anymore, meaning I’m unable to hide ads in the past as I always have since purchasing the upgrade…
