How your support helps: I recently had to upgrade my hosting plan to keep the site from periodically going offline. At its peak, the app creates a new watershed every 1.2 seconds! Web hosting costs a few hundred dollars per year, a lot for a hobby project by a full-time student. Please support the app to keep it free for everyone.

Thank you! 🙏 💕
