It doesn't work on a site I tried, and I'm interested in premium. Do you fix websites for premium users?

Yes, let me know by sending me an email. Also, make sure to test the search button in the different modes if you haven't already.

Tell us about your stack

100% Kotlin on the Android side and pretty close to 100% SwiftUI on the iOS side. So two native apps.

Interesting! Is this using the local device to scrape or a remote server process?

Thanks! It is using the local device.

I think you should at least have preceded the title of the original post with a "Show HN: ".

In your comment advertising your sale, you should've added a disclaimer saying that you're directly profiting from it, or at least made it clear that it is your product. Just my opinion though.

Thanks for getting back to me. Will follow your advice if I do something similar in the future.
