Dev’s Note

Hello! Dev here. I hope you like the app I made. I designed this app with ease of use and privacy as my top priorities. I always got frustrated when I wanted to try an app but had to sign in. So, I made this app completely free to use, no sign-in required, and no data collected. If you have any recommendations for the app, feel free to give me feedback. It will help me improve this app a lot. Have a nice trip!
