M Mkwanazi (ID: 000000cc242f09b8) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/12/2021 Brilliant extension with useful tools. I suspect the currency conversion feature will be very useful and the blur feature will make it very easy to discuss my portfolio with disclosing sensitive data. Lastly, this extension has been endorsed by Mr Savage (by his conduct), which has put my mind at ease.

James Windu (ID: 0000005659915be8) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/09/2021 Super useful extension. I used to have to keep a excel just to sort my data. Allowing sorting of your holdings by value/price increase etc is super useful. One nice addition would be a csv export of the holdings grid
