At $3.99 this was an instant buy for me until the App Store told me I couldn't. I think the venn diagram between HN users and those holding off on Tahoe is probably a pretty big overlap. ;-)
My experience share only supporting the latest OS:
I have launched apps focused on a new feature in the latest OS and regretted it. The # of people who have the latest OS is much smaller than the full install base for much longer than I thought. As a result, my marketing conversion was unnaturally low - people who liked the app idea but couldn't install because they had the wrong OS. This causes two problems: potential users I activated but couldn't convert and this signal gets internalized by the App Store, pushing down future impressions.
Now I always have a fallback implementation of the feature so I can target the prior OS. Both Mac and iOS.
Thanks. An update that will add functionality that allows a user to give it a link that contains web video, will do dynamic link discovery (with Safari extension, and pull in the video automatically (M3U8 discover and retrieval) -- Lots of online lecture videos that need transcription.
I will include better version support (probably to os 13).
Uses liquidGlass fairly heavily- just design reasons-- I'm happy to expand compatibility

Same! I was trying to buy but wasn't able to.
If ever there were a reason to upgrade!
But thats a fair point- I drank the Liquid Glass Kool-Aid----- I'll aim more compatibility the next upgrade

Do you have a mailing list?
Wanted to buy. Not on Macos 26.
Tahoe really is just unusable

Hence why I'm asking why it requires it. Trying to hold off as long as I can!
