PentestKit is an excellent mobile app for penetration testing. I use it frequently, and its web crawling feature is highly effective. However, one improvement would make it even better: the ability to save crawler results. Currently, we can crawl websites but cannot save the output, which limits usability. Adding a save feature would significantly enhance the app’s functionality. I hope the developer considers this in future updates. Overall, a must-have tool for security professionals!

Hello developers! I am a middle school teacher for a school in the UK, and there is a major problem with this app. Recently, four of our students started a hacking group, and used your tool to attack the school laptops, and tablets with your DoS tool. We are able to find one of the students in this group, and he gave us the information on what they used, the name of the group, and when they founded it. I'd like you to remove the DoS tool to stop this group, thanks!
