Hamish Erskine (ID: 000000b2bebc5771) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/26/2023 Great plugin - I can finally stop using the very old Deprecated Legacy pixel debugger. Feature request - allow full use in incognito window. If "Allow in Incognito" is checked then the plugin does work in the toolbar, but doesn't appear in Developer Tools.

Amit (ID: 000000d3073e6268) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/29/2023 From a short use, works intuitively and good

Tracking Team (ID: 000000258f19622c) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/17/2023 This is the best tracking chrome extension i've used and i use it daily. HIGHLY recommend for anyone in the tracking and tagging / troubleshooting space

Michael E (Enky) (ID: 0000005958f0c4df) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/12/2023 On a client website, the GTM code was only allowed to run if a cookie was present. The plugin here showed me if my code was working, tracking would only happen if the cookie was set. Thank you!

Nicholas Giordano (ID: 000000e5833d117d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/20/2023 It's honestly crazy that more people aren't aware of this tool.
