No content

Will not download any manpage content, and therefore currently worthless.

Handy

Nice. Thanx

A time saver

Feels like a cheatsheet for *nix that filters out the fluff for those times when you just need to recall the options for a particular command. If you work on the CLI, this is a must have reference. Check out the vim section and thank me later.

So handy

Excellent app, so handy to have all this info and your fingertips.

Sadly it isn’t Too Long to Read

I got the impression this was a man page app. It shows no switches, doesn’t link to man pages, it’s a simple command aggregator and a wasteful one at that. I wish I hadn’t purchased it.

Response from developer

Hello davbran, I’m sorry to hear you’re not satisfied with your purchase. I’ll try to improve the app description for the next release - thank-you for making us aware of its inadequacies. You may contact Apple, if you wish, to get a refund of your 99 cents.

Feature request: Personalization

Amazing app! I would like the ability to edit in my own custom additions to existing commands. I know I can contribute to the open source project, but I don’t want to change the default for everyone. I just want to customize/personalize only for myself.

Response from developer

Hello Chuckinator0, Thank-you for the kind review :-) The tldr project does accept contributions from users. See https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md Matthew

Clean & Simple

Probably one of the most useful apps for any developer or sysadmin. The only thing I suggest to add will be a filter for OS/Distro related commands. Great job!

Response from developer

Thank-you for your kind words, Dubious1923. Filtering is a great idea - I’ll look into it!

Fast, lean and useful

This is one of the better apps I’ve used on mobile. Responsive and fast, and the tldr content is incredibly useful. I hope to contribute to the tldr project at some point. Works flawlessly on my older iOS hardware. This honestly makes me excited for mobile development.
