Kellyn Delgado (ID: 0000001c28c523f8) Voted 5 β˜… - Updated 02/09/2023 Love this extension! Being able to quickly use emojis, unicode characters, and snippets across web, Android, and Linux is amazing! This extension really shows the true power of ChromeOS and we really need more tools like this. I also love using the QuickLinks feature to launch Android and Linux apps as well. Keep up the great work CrosExperts!

CrosExpert (ID: 000000f8f518470a) Voted 5 β˜… - Updated 08/28/2022 I'm the developer of CrosKeys, and I hope you enjoy the app! ChromeOS doesn't have many exclusive/optimized tools, so I thought I should do my part to fix that problem.
