now that i see that list, the app became a lot less interesting :/
i used to use a firefox addOn that had the same function, but it created noise by "clicking" on random links starting from a user defined page
I was about to make a pull request to expand the list to the top 109 websites, but the developer blocked me from all interactions because I "spammed too many issues" (I opened 5 and they were all legitimate). Buggy software gets multiple bug reports, what a surprise... The software (or at least the idea) has a lot of potential, but a lot of work and care needs to be put into it.
Only two of your five issues were bug reports, one of which was not really useful - various android makes have their own optimizations that can kill the app in the background, there's very little devs can do to stop this.
Mullvad VPN has DAITA which does something similar but more legit
