Keita Abe (ID: 000000aecedeee6e) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 04/26/2023 So far, I find this extension to be quite useful. It enables me to easily save articles that I want to read later to Google Tasks. One suggestion I have is to incorporate a feature that changes the button's color or appearance after adding a page to Google Tasks. Currently, there is no visual indication of whether the page has been successfully added, and it would be helpful to have some feedback for confirmation.
