★★★★★ PLEASE HELP ★★★★★
If you find these additions valuable and like the app Bubble Clouds, please consider dropping a 5-star review: it means more to me than you can imagine. Regard it a character flaw, but my motivation lives and dies by these ratings. A few high ratings fuel my ambition for days to add new features, and there were weeks I couldn’t touch the source code after a tsunami of low ratings.
Big thank you to all who chimed in!
