Kelvin Nava (ID: 0000008e5dd17283) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 11/25/2023 Wow, this is so great. Google Docs is more comfortable with this extension.

Luciano Panepucci (ID: 000000fda61df942) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 11/06/2023 Needs work but is very responsive. The paragraph object is missing for things like vip or vap, also big word W for moving or viW and lots of other basic features. I'm not against paying but my main concern is that the extension has access to documents contents. This is obviously required but having the extension open source would be nice.

Tyler McCoy (ID: 0000001f115f505c) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 10/04/2023 I disliked it because it only lasts 14 days before being required to pay money. They should allow default configuration to free users but if they want to ask for money they can allow extra options for paying users to customize the config

Joey Carney (ID: 000000158b6f4d75) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/25/2023 Actually pretty cool, and works well. I got rid of it because it's paid. At the moment it doesn't offer huge advantages over the native Google Docs commands, but I would definitely keep it if it wasn't paid. Seems like the developer is staying active and working on it. Hopefully there'll be an open source version in the future.

S T (ID: 000000c21287ae2d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/22/2023 Really excited that this is being handled; I've reached out to the developer and they're very responsive and already working on they bugs and adding feedback to the backlog. Keep up the good work - this is a killer extension!
