Hi!

Let me please add to the thanks and kudos for all your efforts developing a truly excellent app!

Two new features I didn’t see elsewhere (my apologies if they were already mentioned or are otherwise off base):

Interesting. Genuinely, thanks for your reply— I’m beginning to think there’s been some sort of misunderstanding (likely on my part). I definitely was not defending Pug’s comment...
