Unfortunately the app icons aren’t always useful or needed. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-07-30, version 1.3* It just says I can enable extension but doesn’t actually let me use it even when it’s enabled. **Developer response:** Sorry about that, would you care to explain so I can provide assistance? ### 1/5 — Wouldn’t work *2022-05-15, version 1.2* I enabled the extention in safari and everything, but it wouldn’t go past the loading screen, no matter what I did. **Developer response:** Sorry about that. I would love to know what loading screen you are talking about. The browser extension does not contain loading screens. ### 4/5 — Honestly Great! One problem though *2022-09-20, version 1.3* This extension works very well for what I need it for. But there’s one little bug that’s been driving me crazy. Mostly, every term is converted just fine with no issue. But in paragraphs with more than one of the same term in it (Ex. “A and their friend go to A’s house”), the program only converts the first instance of the term. Any remaining instances in the same paragraph will remain untouched/unchanged. (Ex. “B and their friend go to A’s house”). EDIT: This is fixable not just through RegEx (possible but a little difficult to understand), but also by just briefly highlighting a word in the paragraph (doesn’t matter what), and this fixes every other instance on the page as well. You just need to do that every time you refresh or go to a new site. (This works on Safari but I haven’t tried other engines) **Developer response:** Yeah. Unfortunately this would require you to do some regex like /A/g but that should do what you need :) ### 4/5 — unreliable *2022-01-12* only works 20% of the time and often ignores certain words despite selecting them. **Developer response:** Sorry to hear that. Would you mind sharing what sites? As for the word not being replaced, maybe try using regex to make the match case insensitive like: /this/i ### 5/5 — Works great *2024-02-11* Awesome word replacer! ### 5/5 — Amazing!😍 *2023-12-11* Listen I’ve never left a review a day in my life on anything, but I had to leave one here. Thank you so much for creating this app. I’ve been dying to find something like this to work with safari. Works perfectly! Highly recommend!❤️ ### 5/5 — Great for Fanfiction *2023-10-15* Works really well for fan fiction sites! Super easy to add multiple rules in the app. Works excellent in Safari. ## Most praised reviews (4 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — SUPER! *2023-08-02* Simple, great-looking and works really well! My only wish is that it would replace text ANYWHERE in HTML, like image tags. I know that's an advanced feature, but I could sure use it. Thanks for this amazing little app. Even the interface beings me joy! ### 5/5 — Works great *2023-01-22, version 1.3* Super easy to use and works as expected. Allows me to obfuscate information I don't want visible when someone is looking over my shoulder. ### 5/5 — Works perfect as a Y/N replacer *2022-10-14* 10/10 I used this on ao3 to replace y/n with my own name and it works perfectly! ### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for :D *2022-06-19, version 1.2* The app worked right away after enabling it in Settings with no issues at all. The UI is blissfully simple to use, and entirely within Safari. I have not encountered any form of ads or other annoyances within the extension. It supports both plain text and RegEx replacements, and I was pleasantly surprised to discover that it supports capturing groups. ($1, etc. seem to function as expected within the “Replace with Y” field) The only feature suggestions I can think of are that it would be nice to have toggle-able groups of substitutions, or an optional URL (RegEx) to restrict where a substitution or group applies. **Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words! Great suggestions, I will add those to my list of things to look in to. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
