No share sheet integration!

Really?! And it’s a paid app!
This is a scam!

Doesn’t work anymore

Avoid. Doesn’t work and unsupported

Doesn’t work at all

Just crashes both in safari and chrome. Doesn’t work. Don’t buy it. The app support link does not go to a support site either.

Does exactly what I need it to, thanks!

Works well, it reliable and simple…

Don’t look any further

This app is very useful and efficient. It just works.

Does what it says on the tin!

Super simple and integrates perfectly with Safari on my iPad. Just the job.

Needs search

This is an excellent app, but it lacks one important feature. It badly needs the ability to search within the source of a page. Other than that, it’s a well done app

Crashes

Didn’t work - crashes when I send the web page to it

It’s bad

Ok it’s work but it’s really bad
You can’t search And will make your Safari frozen
It is one dollar but really is worth it nothing

Always worked for me

Fresh or update of 13.4, working great. The extension looks fine. The app looks old because it is, use the extension. There is a JavaScript bookmarklet that does similar, but this adds primary tag collapse/expand, asset navigation, and JavaScript injection.
If developer can figure out how to have a true web inspector, right click on an element and inspect, on an iPad that would be a game changer. I’d buy a separate app. Right now the iPad doesn't do web development code.

No search

No search enabled. Have to copy to notepad or other editor to search for text.

Works fast though.

just crashes

it used to be great but this hasn’t been updated to keep up with iOS versions. now it just crashes. should really be pulled from the store at this point

Now useless

Used to be very handy, but now it just crashes every time I try to use it. Barring word of an update to fix these problems, it should be removed from the App Store.

Crashes

The view source window crashes when you’re in Safari and you’re trying to “Highlight strong” (Find text)

Crashes when scrolling

This app crashes very quickly when opened in the safari preview, making it very frustrating to use

No good

Not so good. Waste of $1. Every time I want to view a html source it comes up but as soon as I scroll down it crashes 🤷🏾‍♀️

Great when it works

Hasn’t been updated in 4 years. Crashing more and more frequently.

Hasn’t been updated

Needs to be updated. Doesn’t work.

This app could really use an update

Any chance 4 years later this awesome app can see an update?

Ok...

So I downloaded this to learn some, but the app crashes when trying to view the source. When it does work all I get is jumbled up information that cant be read by people to make heads or tails of anything. I even checked it against my laptop, which is clean and clear.
