Hi,
Since the new FF for android does not allow to save pages to pdf nor to install any plugin that would do just that, I was looking for an app like yours.
I've installed the latest version from f-droid. Unfortunately, when I "share" an URL from FF (e.g. https://medium.com/datadriveninvestor/predict-stock-price-with-time-series-statistical-learning-fec97560439e ), then click on "convert", I can see a notification that says the conversion is processing, but then nothing happens and no file is created. When I enter the URL directly in pdfmyurl.com, it works (even if the result is not that perfect).
Also, as a side note, the proposed name for the file is based on the site (medium.com in my case), but I want to convert multiple pages from the same site. So I have to complete the proposed name every time. This is cumbersome... Why not use the "page" part of the url instead of the "domain" part?
Finally, it is not very clear in the app description that it requires web access, since it simply delegates the job to pdfmyurl.com.... Which is not really privacy compliant...

@liar666 Thanks for your comment. Let me answer one by one.
Medium article
I tested on my phone the Medium URL provided is converted well. You can see the sample output attached. VDAtIMAlxef.pdf. Perhaps there's issue on the Android app running on your phone. Can you tell me the Android OS version of your phone?
Default filename
Created #5 for the default pdf file name. Track the progress there.
Relationship with pdfmyyrl.com
In the early day Web2PDF is calling pdfmyurl.com as the backend service. But since it started to add watermark, though still keeping it as a free service, I had my own backend service (96f9389) to do the conversion. So the latest version doesn't use pdfmyurl.com anymore.
