Love it - don’t use anything else. It’s a hotkey away - you can pick docsets so I have an OSX set and an iOS set (both of which include XCode’s docs too). There’s a snippet editor I’ve not really used as much as I ought to, you also get updated downloads of lots of other useful manuals like perl and shell etc. It was upgraded recently to Swift-compatible BUT you can turn it off and just see the ObjC stuff if you like.
Downside I guess you don’t get searchable tech notes and example code, just the API docs. That’s about the only time I go back to Xcode’s doc viewer.
I did get an update the other day which just told me a new version is on the way, or just released perhaps. I think I have Dash 2, this is Dash 3 and is an extra 10 bucks which I will probably end up paying eventually. How that works thru the appstore I’m not entirely sure - I didn’t think you could do paid upgrades through the appstore.
Anyway you can try it out for free IIRC - give it a few days and see if you like it. x
