This app is categorized as "Social," it should be "Productivity" or "Tool." I complain about the app's price and subscriptions (they'll never get 5 stars as long as they have a subscription - and yes Camel, I'm personally aware of software maintenance costs), but I just tried some similar apps and guess what? Camel has the best available. Now, if they'd lower their price (about 50%), they'd find they'll make more money!

As of Nov. 2020... all old free features are now subscribe or pay only. Full page ads after each copy. This does not seem like a good way for the developer to go. I understand the need to make money and would be willing to pay a lesser one time fee, But to switch it up like this automatically.... Wonderful app. Works flawlessly. I use it primarily to copy text to use in my personal journal. Free app! I did send them a tip because of there awesome work. Thanks for sharing this with us!

I purchased the app but it doesn't seem to work like before when I used the free version 3 years ago where I can easily copy the comments in YouTube. Now with pro version, I can still copy YouTube comments but I have to click every paragraph and if I don't expand longer comments by clicking read more, then it will only copy some part of the comment and not like the way it copied before where it will copy the entire comment with one click. Sorry for my English. Hope you understand my concern.

Edit: Changing my previous rating and review because I re downloaded the app to my new phone and it works now! Don't know if it was a glitch or if it was a mistake on my end, but I don't have any issues copying anymore, though I don't like how we get a pop up video ad every time we copy something. I understand the need for ads, but i'm sure there's a way to make them less obtrusive for your users.

Scanner feature was made free with ads. That's a step in the right direction, rather than forcing greedy sub. There's also now a lifetime option too for $10! As many apps turn to a subscription model, more people will have to choose what apps they want to subscribe to or not. Not all of us are rich. A dollar a month here, a dollar a month there, and it all adds up quickly. At least now I have a reason to update and quit using my modded version, that is unless the ads become too intrusive.
