I really should have updated a negative review I left some time ago when this app wasn't working properly (as a result of changes Safari introduced that blocked the working of the app).
It's back to working fine, and I use it all the time. Thanks for keeping the app up to date.
Unfortunately, this is a review of/comment on v. 1.2.2, which is the only version I can theoretically run in trial mode.
I am, however, not able to launch v. 1.2.2 because there appears to be a bug that will not allow me to register the demo version.
I have had the iPhone app for several years and have not been thrilled by it, but I thought I would at least try the desktop application to see if it would enhance the use of the iPhone app.
The online sync service is exorbitantly overpriced, and, given how difficult it is even to sync the iPhone app via Appigo's own desktop sync app, I am beginning to wonder if I should abandon Appigo altogether.
Following Maclindamood's suggestion below, I finally was able to launch the app ONCE by opening it in 32 bit mode. However, I haven't been able to launch it again (problem reported in Troubleshooting section on this site.)
I looked on developer's site for further information re: troubleshooting; they suggest submitting a crash log for analysis. Link to page giving instructions on how to do this is broken.
All of these things taken together show a clear pattern that everything about this app is too flawed to trust with my project data, and I have no confidence that it ever will be repaired. It's regrettable, as I have quite a bit of information stored in the iPhone version of the app.
I am not an expert in this, but it appears that the architecture for this app never was native to the Mac OS; it does not have the Mac "look and feel." Yet another reason why I don't expect Appigo will ever get this right, especially when they start trying to integrate cloud/iCloud syncing.
I would be interested in hearing the opinion of others before I ditch this app completely.
App had stopped working awhile back with a recent Safari release, but then came back to life.
Its primary limitation comes from Safari itself, which forces you to go in and delete each.individual.cookie — a huge time waster. However, Safari Cookies can do most of the heavy lifting. A very minor problem with one of my favorites (1Password) not showing up as “checked,” even though 1P’s cookies are, indeed, protected. Other than that, a great sanity-saver. Thanks!
Not working for me any longer. Running Safari 5.1, OS 10.6.8. Cookies are the principal problem, but it seems glitchy with databases from time to time. Fortunately, I do not have many of those.
What is not clear from the comments here is whether the developer will be able to build a workaround? It's a terrific extension, so hopefully so.
Very disappointed. Buggy -- sometimes lets you edit titles of saved pages, sometimes not -- they show up blank, even though when highlighted, you can see the new title is there. Limited functionality.
On the whole, I'm sorry I bought it. I would say it's only useful if you want to save a few pages quickly and don't want to create bookmarks. I'm sure there are better apps out there -- for which I will begin looking.
Dev - I've tried to access your site today to purchase a license; is site temporarily unavailable? Chrome will not access page at all, Safari loads a page with banners only and will not drill down to details. Thanks much.

iStat Menus is great but takes up too much space.
