To be honest, I bought this because it looked useful and was a bargain at $10. In brief, i think its potential outweighs any current problems.
On the problem side it struggles to import large numbers (over 2000) bookmarks and would not sync across my Air and imac, crashing regularly.
BUT...and this is why I'll be sticking with PINS...the support from Fabio the developer has been exceptional and I'll happily stay with a product when thee is that level of support and plus, if we don't support new developers to iron out the glitches in new products, where will we be.
After deleting the PINS app support folders in the library and 'starting from scratch' things worked fine, including syncing.
This is the second reason why I'm staying with PINS. A 'fresh start' with my bookmarks. If you are like me, you may over the years have amassed hundreds or even thousands of bookmarks in various different browsers (I was up to about 3000 in safari, chrome and firefox). To be honest, I probably regularly use about 30 of those and probably couldn't tell you what all he others even were :-)
I'm going to use PINS to gradually bring in and organise the bookmarks that I really need and use and am actually looking forward to the 'decluttering' experience.
So 3.5 stars for what is a good product and potentially a great one with the kind of first rate support that we wish we had from our software all the time.
