[2012-03-28] henrythepanda: good idea bu too buggy good idea for improving readability of the content/text of a web page. But it's too buggy to become a useful app yet. Just a basic Google search (by using the Google Button of the home screen, it just keep show "Error 400 (Bad Request)!!" error message |

[2012-02-14] Steve: Doesn't load most sites. If it does, no text. It's just what I need, but at this stage it's useless. Keep at it because I reckon you're onto a winner. |

|
[2012-01-14] Ali: Sorta works But it fails on many pages, even ones that contain mostly text. And there's no way to set the default font size. A better alternative is to just turn images off in the stock browser. |
|

[2011-12-24] Rafi: Great Application and Support! It does what it intend to do - very quickly and efficient, in both portrait and landscape modes . Multi-touch does zoom in/out. It also supports Hebrew pages. If you encounter any problem with font encoding - do what I did: contact the author, and he will fix it within a few hours! Great and recommended! |
