Marker for Bookmarks

This app offers an interesting take on bookmarking. The main page was prefilled with links which was frustrating until I went back to the app description & figured out why. I’m def keeping it to explore more. The freemium model ain’t shabby either.

First off- there was NO onboarding. Nothing. It loads right up to a list of pre-saved bookmarks, making you think something is wrong. Every single bookmark is for fund raising utilizing various fund raising platforms. I understand that the dev has causes close to their heart, but they should be left OUT of the app. For all intent and purpose, this is an app dedicated to fundraising! Furthermore, when you backround the app, and return to it, an in-app safari page pops up with a chat interface and something asking you a question, presumably an “AI assistant” of sorts. You have to dismiss it EVERY TIME. If you tap on a dedicated fundraiser bookmark, it immediately opens safari, or in one case, the App Store. I strongly suspect the dev has an iTunes affiliate account and various others, and this app is a mere front. It’s not actually going to do anything to help you, such as say, functioning as a bookmark saver. It’s going to help the poor in Malawi. Yeah, right. This spammy crud missle of an app is not worth downloading and caused nothing but confusion, frustration, and pop ups. It is exactly what we don’t want to download. Especially fellow developers, who can report this sort of thing, and whom have the means to trace and capture the apps traffic to see where the spam is coming and going to…
