Would be nice if it didn't reset so quickly. I often switch back and forth between my browser and this, and want VT source to save my place for when I switch back to it. It does sometimes, but if I background it for too long it resets.
This is my favorite app when it comes to phishing links. Just copy the link to the clipboard, open the app and it pastes itself. Then I get to check out the badguys server without worrying about 0day driveby code jumping on my device. You literally travel the web on the source code. I couldn't tell you how many C&C servers I've actually found by following the .css and .java resource links from the original landing page. Android 9 and no font issues here. High five on a grade A app Dev! ☆☆☆☆☆
It does everything it says and does it well. I have used it for a while now and still happy. Yes, there are things that would be great to have but these are feature requests and not issues with app. All in all a good solid tool.
Hopless as the text on the screen overlaps and is unreadable. Such a shame it was so good before it was updated.
All source is mashed into a single screen, making a nice rainbow pattern instead of showing source code. Happens on every url I tried
To everyone saying the code is unreadable just reduce the font size to 80 and it fixes the problem you can find it in the settings.
It's not fit for the new versions of Android. The code overlaps and the font size microscopic.
This is my Best App ever. I pray long life and more wisdom to the developer. It is an epitome of a masterpiece. If it is possible to rate 10 Stars, I don't mind.
Useless, always needs a secure site just to use your app. It says SSL Certificate seems to be untrusted/not safe. So there, its useless.
Works great. Nice for JS manipulation and WAY quicker than graphical browsers (I've used Canary, Chrome, XBrowser, Fennec, Chromium, Opera, Maxthon5 and TorBrowser).
Works as described. Open any non-secured web page and review source. Author has some other nifty tools as well.
Code is unreadable, the text wraps and the rows collapse ones on each others
A really great app, helps with developing on a mobile phone.
This app is a pleasure to use and functions awesomely. And no ads - wonderful! Thanks, dev!
Texts overlaps so I can't read any of it.
Incredibly easy to use and no ads at all
Doesn't work well on new Android OS( non-compatible). Sizes too small unreadable.
I have failed to copy or paste the URL, I can't get what you mean by that Therefore, I have failed to use the app
VERY LIGHT APP AND USEFUL THANKS FOR THE DEVELOPER KEEP IT UP ILIKE THIS APP SO MUCH IAM USING IT MORE THAN 1 YEARS!!!!
Didnt do anything at all, just loaded and then showed a blank screen after entering the url
Broken. Lines are all overlapping into an unusable mess.
**Update** whatever the problem was that was making it no load or slow they fixed it so now I an give it the full 5 stars great job
Useless I tried it on a page and it refused to open it because if a problem with acsecurity certificate.
this only show the html source, it does not show javascript and other code. poor idea, use firefox app instead and you will see the difference
It Was Good until they made a update and then the code was not even code it was just scrible scrible all over the screen
This is flawless it works better than I was hoping for and lots of extras. If you sleep on getting this gift, then your loss
Was the best, now, since some months ago, the code is unreadable.
This is what I am looking. Easy to use! and beautiful UI.
Excellent app for manipulating HTML, CSS, and other code. Includes useful features such as HTML validation and link checking (through an external site). And in an environment where sloppy coders want cash before inflicting their apps on users, this app is both free and of high quality. Thank you for writing and maintaining the app. Best wishes.
