The (new) page behind the app. Facebook took down the original page, unsurprisingly, so now we're on BlueSky!

What are you seeing/trying that makes you think it's disabled?

if you run into any issues along the way with it, please, and especially so for iOS as I don't have a device to test with.

destination to share to. It'll then take the link of the website you're on, put it into my app and press the button for you, copying it to your clipboard (You might need to give it those permissions the first time). You can then close the app and paste it into where ever you'd like!
Let me know...

Another Update!
I've had some requests, and I've wanted to do it too, to be able to "Share" to my app from another app on the phone. Now we can do that!
It's still in an early release, but from what I can tell it's working as intended.
I don't have an iPhone to try it out with, but, with Android...

So before I go off and announce it, just in case it doesn't work. I did a thing.
Theoretically you should be able to "install" the web app on your device now -- and then "share" to it, where it'll copy the URL appropriately.
Additionally, you can make a shortcut to /share/?url=URL_HERE

Not as it stands. To my limited understanding of mobile apps and the related, there's a web app option, but it doesn't integrate in the same way as a regular app. So I'd have to build an app for Apple and Android to make that function work.

Ha, good catch. I had to patch something a couple weeks ago, guess I missed that part.
Facebook took down my page, so yeah it's bluesky now. Thanks for letting me know!

What are you seeing? Can you send me the link and a screenshot? Feel free to DM it

As it stands, the app still works too; just for clarification there. Should that no longer be the case, I'll look at uploading the code to GitHub so others can continue its legacy.

Well, I guess it was only a matter of time until Facebook banned my page. They claim I'm impersonating someone.. Odd enough.
But in traditional Meta fashion, there's no way to contact them, so what they say goes. So now I'm on BlueSky!
You can also email me at info@pebmac.ca should you need to.
