Brocton Nunns (ID: 00000011785ec8f8) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/16/2022 I absolutely love this! I use it to cut evidence cards for debate. I'm wondering if eventually it will be possible to create custom citation formats?

Benjamin Abrams (ID: 00000055e4e3361c) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/06/2021 I have tried multiple citation solutions for Chrome. All have problems, of course (even the paid tools). LiteCite is, by far, the best and easiest. Some features I'd like to see: - Citing things such as video, images, social media post. - Citing archived versions of websites Thanks for a great piece of software!
