Ratings and reviews

Usefully but could be better. For instance, when riding a new tag instead of having to delete things, you'll be useful if I can save them for a later time to use. For an example, if I have two ULRs I want to save when you scan only the first one would pop up. The second one is lost but if I was able to move them around instead of delete them or save and remove one and add it back at a later time it be nice.

intrusive ads, can even open the app without going through an ad 👎👎👎

Just adding to every other legitimate rating for this app to say that this app is not worth your time or effort. So many ads it's a time drain to even attempt to use, and when it does work there are ads popping over the UI and generally getting in the way all the time. I've never seen another app that had forced you to see an ad before it launches. Avoid at all costs.
