Does not work with July 2024 version of Safari

This is a browser extension for Safari. Didn’t work on my iPhone. I had it enabled, went to the newrepublic.com site in Safari, selected a font, and clicked the what font menu option. It said something to the effect of “select a text” but I’d already selected text. Not sure what the fix is, but I hope the developer can figure it out. I’ve a similar plugin installed on my laptop and it works like a champ there.

Doesn’t work

App doesn’t work. It doesn’t pull up in the actions menu of the iPhone. It’s outdated anyways. Don’t download.
