Now working!!!

UPDATE: Ok! After a second iPhone reboot, Parrot now appears in the Share menu, right below Copy. Great way to capture some text, send it plus URL as a . PNG, to highlight or emphasize for your recipient. Teaser snippet rather than TL;DR summary. Original+first update: Nice idea, which worked (on my up-to-date-iOS iPhone) first time. But subsequently, Parrot disappeared from the Share menu, and it is not available under (either) Edit to add back in. Deleting/reinstalling doesn’t add it back oddly. Virtual toast, as far as I can see. Thanks for the suggestions, Sandro. Alas no change with fresh install of vers 1.3 or rebooting the phone. Parrot simply doesn’t appear as an option either for sharing or for adding to the share list.

Response from developer

Hi! Sorry to hear this but with recent updates it should work. Also in the worst case, restarting your device can help in such cases too.

I hope developer makes more efforts to build this app better

Very low key application at this point. I thought developer will keep working hard to make it better but …

My device: iPhone 14 Pro Max (Latest iOS), iPad Pro 12.9” (3rd generation, 2018, latest iPadOS)

Note: I regularly update my review/rating for this application.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. I already work on an update which should output the cards/images at a higher resolution. Hope to have it ready soon.

Worked once, now dead

Great Little App

Parrot is a lovely simple little app for creating shareable cards/images from selected website text. It offers a selection of elegant templates which are easily customised with different colours, titles and links. The one addition that I would like to see would be the ability to add text directly rather than have to share it from a website. Thanks Sandro.

I hope this application keeps getting better…

Updated Review: Thank you for working hard to make this application better and listening to your customer. My kind regards to all developers!

Totally, recommend this application to others.

Old Review: I like the idea but image/photo quality needs lots of work. Very poor quality of pictures (after saving as a photo).

My device: iPad Pro 12.9” (3rd generation, 2018)
OS: iPadOS 15.4.1 or later (updated)

Note: I regularly update my review/rating for this application.
