Ratings and reviews

First 5 things 2 are not on the website anymore aka removed. Meaning why am I seeing stuff that isn't on the website any longer. I really want to give this 5 stars. Really like the lack of invasive ads. Keeps the main point of the app adfree but has them in much less invasive locations.

I love, great way to stumble upon cool stuff to print that I didn't know I needed in my life. The problem is I find myself with hundreds of potential items in a list that I want to access from my pc to slice and print. I could email a link to each item one at a time but that would take forever. Would love to be able to export the weblinks to each item on my list in bulk. Or a basic web portal with the same functionality as the app would be super helpful then I can just log in from a browser and see or load anything in any of my lists. Any chance of seeing this function implemented in a future release?

The full screen Amazon ads sleazy. When you close them, the ad opens in a new browser. When you try to back out of the ad, it opens in a new browser. It's sketchy, which is unfortunate because the app is really fun and useful, but I can't recommend it because the ads hijack everything and make the whole app see.m suspicious.

What’s new
