Ashley Stevenson (ID: 00000005a0e94d75) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 10/12/2018 There are two functions of this extension. The former I cannot determine the use of because it does not work. There are a series of empty button, one of which says "Loading...". The latter function is helpful. It is found by flicking the toggle at the top right. It allows me to put any number of URLs into it. Each URL is then tested to see what redirects occur.
