Excellent app with all the detail necessary. A bit minimalistic and probably could do with a bit of a UI uplift but great nonetheless. Edit: Not cool to link to the Apple store for "More great tools"! 😄

It's a great tool for use on the mobile. The UI, especially the Rest API request body tab can be improved a bit.

The app is cool, fast and reliable according to my own uses. Though it misses some essential feature like: organizing, moving and copying requests between folders and drag & drop feature to easily edit collections and/or move, add, remove requests between multiple collections/folders within the same collection. Also, the ability to change the order of requests, folders, collections on the list with drag & drop to easily manage different projects. Search feature still not working.
