Back in 2008 I downloaded an app similar to this and then during one update 6 or 7 years later it vanished from the app store... and my phone! Been looking for a replacement since. I even studied Swift to write my own.

Thanks for writing the app, and not collecting any data! Reminds me of the glory days of the first app store before it all went to crap.

Also, I searched for the exact search string name of your app and you were STILL the third app down.

Yeah..the goal is to keep the app as minimal as possible while offering useful functionality to users without charge. Glad it's useful for you.

You're right about the low app store ranking on search. I need to look into optimizing those results.
