Maybe one star was a little harsh, but...

- Summary
- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Maybe I'm missing something? The developer was kind enough to respond to my earlier one-star review so I went back for another look. Well, sorry but I still think it's useless. Either that or I'm still missing something. Launch the app for the first time and, yes, there is a splash screen. But when will I ever see it again? Surely I sort of need it again if I decide to pay? As the developer and the other guy says, it places an icon at the right hand end of the menu bar. And, it's true, clicking it turns it from grey (inactive) to Red-brown (active). But what is it doing? In demo mode, it says it will delay screen dimming for five minutes. But who has the system prefs set to dim the screen in under five minutes? I would've thought it made sense to pull down a menu "dim screen after x minutes: disabled (or compulsory 5) in demo mode. But...nothing! Sorry, I thank the developer for his effort, doing something I can only dream of (writing an app) but I honestly can't see any point in the thing. I have my system prefs set to dim the screen after 30 minutes of inactivity. What point is there in a tool that lets me change this setting from 30 to 35 or whatever? Why would I ever want to?
another little missing something --- fine ...

- This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />How, what, where, when? Click it and...nothing happens. Nothing launches and nothing announces that anything on the Mac has changed. More to the point, it has absolutely NO INFLUENCE ON THE SCREEN DIMMING ! No ReadMe or anything other than an icon. Is this a joke?
