User reviews

打开二进制文件全是xxxxxx

只会显示xxxxx

Response from developer

感谢您的反馈。 显示“xxxxxx”并不是错误,而是免费演示模式中超过256字节限制的内容。这个限制在应用中已有说明。 升级后可以查看完整内容。

Unusable

This time-waster just nags you to send money without ever demonstrating that it would be any use.

Response from developer

This review is misleading. The app provides a free demo mode that allows users to evaluate its functionality before making any purchase. The 256-byte limitation is clearly stated and is only meant to demonstrate the app’s capabilities. The app does not “nag” users for money — upgrading is entirely optional.

Great

Works well. Know that you can scroll vertically and horizontally in address, data, and ASCII fields. You can also resize the columns and you can also pinch and zoom to make things more readable. Powerful hex editor.

Response from developer

Thank you for the great review! We’re really happy to hear you’re making use of features like scrolling, column resizing, and pinch-to-zoom — making complex data easier to explore is exactly what we aim for. Thanks for your support!
