Two fingers to scroll? No pinch to zoom? No find? And an ad to the iPad version at the bottom of the app which you cannot remove. I paid for this app, I don't want to see ads. Also it would be nice to change user agent for websites that auto redirect to a mobile site. I want to see the source for the website I said to go to, not the website it redirects to. And this are the problems I have found within the first minute of buying the app. I bought it to look at the source of one website while away from the office. But guess what, it auto forwarded to the mobile site so it was useless for the one and only reason I bought it. ### 1/5 — No Support and No copying code *2011-02-06, version 1.6.1* To correct the other review, yes you can scroll horizontally - you just use two fingers instead of one. Only viewing the code would be what one would expect of a free app, but this paid app doesn't allow copying any of the code for pasting elsewhere. This was unexpected and a disappointment as this was exactly the feature I was looking for. On balance, nowhere in any of the documentation for any of the "view html source" type apps is the ability to copy some of the code for pasting elsewhere stated as a feature. I'm not going to buy one at a time and find out none of them do this. Clicking on the Source Viewer support link doesn't link to a support page, but a web page with 78 web app icons. When the App Store Apps tab on that page is selected, you just get a web page with 75 apps that link back to iTunes. ### 5/5 — Love The App *2010-12-28* I have had this for a long time now and love it. It would be even better if there was a way to search for specific code in the source. Like lets say I want to find '' but overall it is very nice. Great App. ### 1/5 — "Keep it simple stupid" *2010-11-04, version 0* Don't reinvent the simple things. ### 5/5 — Reverse engineer any web page. *2009-12-25* I love this app. As a designer, this thing is invaluable. To be able to view the source HTML on my Touch is really handy. Great for inspiration and/or finding out "how do they do that." Great app. The three tabs are perfect. Easy, fast, and intuitive. I have no idea why a few peeps are knocking this app. Easily worth 6 bucks... At .99 cents it is a steal. I use it daily in the course of my design work. Would luv to see pro version with FTP and page editing features. Thanks. ### 3/5 — Good bones but needs more work *2009-11-27* I pretty much echo the previous comments. It needs better word wrap an a landscape mode. ## Frequently asked questions about Source Viewer ### What is Source Viewer?
