### ****- "There is one problem with dark mode"
It’s that semaphore letter m does not become dark.
-- m.a.teo, 2021-01-16

### ***** "Awesome!!!"
I’m so stoked by this app.  It’s amazing how much information and useful tools are inside.  I will be using it for Geocaching as well as educating myself.
-- JTBC251, 2018-11-23

### ***** "Nice app"
This is a fun little app for puzzles and codes. Never had the slightest problem with it.
-- Gerglomacro, 2018-04-19

### ***** "Great program"
I was worried that the program ARG Tools was going away because of the update to OS 11. It is now better than ever. This is an excellent program. Thanks for updating it.
-- AKERDOC, 2017-09-22

### ***** "I'm just stunned 😹"
A couple days ago I contacted the developer for the original version of this app (AGR tools) I had used the app for a few hours and found out it didn't support upcoming iOS 11 so they contacted me and I'm glad to know it's here and better than the old version
-- sonicisdeadtome, 2017-08-24

### ***** "Useful"
Definitely a nifty little app for helping you with ARGs, classic encryption, or just helpful little bits of information. Definitely a more clean reimplement of the original app.
-- thiseggisfresh, 2017-03-04

### ***** "Love it"
I like this app
-- Qwerty17036qwerty, 2017-02-22

### ***** "Really helpful!"
This app is an amazing gem. It's been so helpful in my small dabble is Cicada 3301 and even in decoding some secrets in Gravity Falls! Incredibly useful and full of interesting stuff. Thanks for making this app!
-- Kalashnikovich, 2014-12-03

### ***** "Great reference guide; awesome for browsers"
I really enjoy browsing through those pocket reference manuals and old encyclopedias. I discover stuff I didn't even know I didn't know about. This app gives a similar experience. Great for randomly checking while sitting on the bus or standing in line. Learn something useful each time.
-- Sluchow, 2014-03-21

### ***** "Very simple reference THAT IS FULL OF COOL STUFF!"
Not much to be said really. Very clean and simple UI. And I just really enjoy the content....
