### 5/5 — Fixes a hole Shamefully still missing from iOS

*2018-11-14*

I wouldn’t be without it. 
It’s the first thing I restore on a new iphone. Anyone that doesn’t have this is missing an essential feature that really improves daily use of the iPhone in a tremendous way. 

I hope the developer will continue to support it as it fills a much needed hole.
