While this little app seems very nice, I'll never find out. It won't start if your Mac user ID contains anything but plain English characters. I have user names with cyrillic, as well as Eastern European characters, so that's it for me. I wrote on the support forum about this about a year and a half ago, and a year before that; no response, no fix for the problem. Too bad.
