Great but

Has not been updated and now the wiki articles are all formatted wrong. Hope this gets fixed. It’s been 2 years.

Slow loading

I would give this app 5 stars for its content, but it is now very slow to load. I don’t know if this problem coincided with the most recent IOS upgrade, but it is persistent. It is not a problem with my internet connection. It is a problem with the app. It is now very slow and cumbersome.

Great App

Great app. The only thing lacking is dark mode.

Funktioniert nur sporadisch

Dieses ehemals fabelhafte Tool funktioniert zur Zeit nur noch sporadisch - eigentlich nur nach einem Reboot des Telefons (iPhone 15 Pro). Warum erschließt sich mir nicht. Einmal geschlossen ist die Suche nicht zu starten und stürzt ab.
Update: Funzt wieder wie gewollt und gewohnt - woran es lag/liegt erschließt sich mir nicht. Habe iCloud-Drive-Sync ab- und wieder angemeldet. Seitdem alles gut.
