Teksong Eap (ID: 000000c4efdfc7e6) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/14/2022 This extension is so much care and dedication with so little appreciation by the world. Only 117 users?! All learners of vietnamese should know about this extension, I can't recommend it enough. Really speeds up vocabulary acquisition when you don't have to google every single word

Han Kyu Kim (ID: 00000003a1903ec7) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/04/2022 This is a great app, but I don't like how I can't change the default to OFF. It is always ON and it's annoying to turn it off every single time, and the settings don't save when I open a new window. Please fix this, thank you very much.
