Absolutely Outstanding
adudenamedRyan
Dang near perfect, one of my few desert island apps. If desert islands had cell coverage. Great functionality with search, settings for handling pinning and browsing, fast extensions, and a reader mode. Great design with a splash of color, lots of font and layout options, light and dark mode, and just the right amount of info shown in the bookmark list. But wait! It even has a customizable (recent, unread, all) offline mode, download full web archives of your bookmarks! So, Internet or no, this Pushpin has you covered. Love it. Simply top notch – Pushpin is an absolute must buy if you use Pinboard.
Great App! Please Consider Night Mode

I love this app and am happy to pay for it. I tried Pinner and others but find this to have the best auto-filled description and tags. There's really only one thing I wish I could see and that would be a night mode for navigating the app itself. The reader mode has it, but I find it jarring in the dark when I leave reader mode and go back to the app navigation. This would put this app over the top!
Share sheet crashes constantly

Good app, but the share sheet—which is super important in an app like this—crashes all the time when used in other apps. The swipe right to auto fill title also rarely works. I'm happy to pay a premium for a good app, but it has to work perfectly. This one just doesn't.
Can't handle my enormous Pinboard collection

I used Pinner but it's share sheet is flaky. So switched to Pushpin. Alas, it can't handle my tens of thousands of Pinboard items (extreme case). It simply refuses to update, or updates slowly. Suspect way it invokes Pinboard API triggers throttling. Pinner avoids that. I think for majority of users it is fine, but for me it simply does not work whereas Pinner does (save share sheet!). So only tow stars for my use case.
Ok for reading, terrible for anything else
Dynamically Programmed
The "read later" bookmarklet/extension crashes Safari. (Never seen that one before!) When you try to add a bookmark, the app freezes. When you try to refresh your bookmarks, it only works about half the time. For ten dollars I'd expect better.
Great app with a bug that gets me

Reader view NEVER loads. I really want to read my bookmarks with the text like it is in settings but it just won't load.
Out of date and primary feature is busted
Dosjon
I bought this for Offline Sync. Guess what? That has a critical bug and crashes whenever it attempts a download. Their support site shows that people have been reporting this issue for a very long time. The lack of an update for over a year makes it clear this is abandonware. I'll gladly update my review when this gets fixed.
Adandoned and now failureware
jim_mccoy
App is clearly abandoned by developer. Now I can no longer login the pinboard after re-installing onto another device as it fails to properly authenticate even though other pinboard apps have no problem. Avoid this app!
Important feature left broken

Pushpin is a very good app for Pinboard, but one of the reasons I spent $10 on it was for its offline mode, which has been broken for months. App otherwise hasn't been updated since the end of 2015. Not great for a $10 app.
