### 1/5 — Very worst

*2019-10-31*

Don’t install this...!! 
You need to pay 79 rs for this app..!

### 1/5 — 👎

*2019-07-08*

O programa para poder funcionar você precisa pagar, ou seja, é completamente inútil colocar como gratuito sendo que logo de cara não existe uma função que você consiga utilizar. 😪

### 1/5 — Attention payez des la 1ere utilisation !

*2019-06-25*

Même pas le temps d’essayer qu’il faut déjà payer ! Je supprime !

### 1/5 — You have to pay

*2018-09-10, version 1.8.1*

It’s free to view the source code for ONE site that the app has pre-selected. Any other site, ie the reason you would download this app, you have to pay for. Bellends.

### 1/5 — Total crap. FIND ANOTHER SOLUTION

*2018-06-15*

Don’t waste your time downloading this as it isn’t free. You can view the source of some random Wikipedia page but in order to view the source of the page your intending you have to pay.  What a DB!

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2018-06-14, version 1.8.1*

You can’t add your own url. 
What’s the point?

### 1/5 — Paid app

*2018-05-16*

This app is useless as a free app, and expects you to purchase an upgrade to not only do something there are *real* free apps for, but also for something you can do on your own from your phone, without an app. 0/10 wouldn't recommend unless you have more money than sense.

### 1/5 — Waste of time!

*2017-11-03, version 1.8.1*

What a ridiculous app! Literally the only thing it does is let you view the source of a single Wikipedia page. For any other URL you need to pay 99p. What’s the point? Just sell it as a pay app don’t muck about with this!!

### 1/5 — Don’t even think of downloading this

*2017-10-21*

“Lite” means you get to review the code for Wikipedia. Nothing else. Any other url requires the paid version.

### 1/5 — Need to buy pro version

*2017-10-17*

Don’t download waste time on this
