Comments and Reviews
The app seemed very beautiful, but when I downloaded it on Windows 10, Windows Defender stopped it from running & mentioned it contained a Trojan. Maybe the developer should check it out once more. I couldn't test it finally, but would love to, if the developer fixes it.
Thanks!
Rating it 3 star for its design already but, haven't run it yet, so cannot say more. If the dev replies, I'll surely update my rating as well.
I'm attaching a screenshot as well for the developer. Just in case it helps, if there's anything dev needs help with, please do contact me here on AlternativeTo.net

It was probably a false positive. Scanning the new version 1.2 on VirusTotal I don't get virus detection
