What's New in View Source

2.1.2

August 3, 2017

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Appleย Watch app icon. Another round of bug fixes for search functionality... at this point I've lost all hope and I'm not even sure it will ever work as it used to. RIP. In other news - dropped support for iOS 8 and did some ground work for shiny new features! \o/

Broken search

Crashes when selecting text in document

As soon as I click on text the app crashes. The crash happens when I take my finger off the screen. It does show the pages nicely formatted with text highlighting. Suggestion: implement logic so a user can tap on an anchor to load that page. And fix the text selection bug.
