No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    Works great for mobile browsers and leverages their built in features. Looks good on desktop, doesn’t push every possible social media icon, could use a few more popular options, but has everything I needed (including Mastodon!). The only function I was missing turned out to be undocumented but was there, and works as expected (custom url on a share).

    This is a great plugin for adding share button to your site. I especially appreciate that it works with The Events Calendar plugin on individual events. I took off one star because the interface is a bit clunky and the customization options for buttons (could be overcome with some custom CSS) are limited. Also, it wasn’t clearly stated that the availability of sharing destinations was dependent on the browser from which you are sharing (sharing options on Android is better than the desktop counterparts). For instance, sharing on the desktop browser only shares to your personal Facebook feed, whereas sharing from the Android browsers allow Facebook feed, groups and pages.

    This very cool plugin does exactly what I was looking for: one sharing button, that triggers a modal with all the possible apps, or the regular social buttons on desktop AND which I can use with my custom inline button. Yay! Very easy to set up with plenty of options and customization possibilities! Thank you! EDIT: Also, the GDPR compliance was another feature I was looking for. “The plugin does not use any cookies or tracking scripts or store any user data.” Thank you for that! 😀

    Finally, a SIMPLE and BEAUTIFUL share button. The button is well visible and smart in terms of configuration. Several styles and appearances to choose from. Free to use, no premium version, nothing fancy. That’s fine for me.
