Perfect Extension

"As someone who doesn’t have accounts on Instagram and TikTok but has many friends who do, this is SO HELPFUL! So GENUIS. I can’t praise it enough for just doing exactly what it’s made to do. It is such an annoying and honestly quite invasive/hostile for these tech companies to force you to not only download but also make an account on their platform to view any content. It is otherwise accessible on web computer browsers, but because I’m using a mobile device they’ve made it so unbearable and impossible to view anything on Safari. This app changes that and I tip my hat to them. Thank you so much. The developer is also quite responsive to issues users may have which is a huge plus! I had issues with Instagram reels not loading. With time and some exchanges between the developer and I, he fixed the issue no problem. Even offered a refund if the problem was taking too long to resolve. I chose to wait. Great extension!"
