Brendan (ID: 000000643e25f511) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 05/23/2022 It works, but doesnt work on google docs, which is kind of a major site... I know that google docs provides some stats in itself, but it doesnt compare the days and stuff like this extension does. Good extension tho, worked on NaNoWriMo like another review said

Rachel Ellis (ID: 000000cd9b3de180) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 01/21/2017 Does what's on the tin. Will track word count for the day, and includes a handy reset button. I use this for Goal Trackers on NaNoWriMo and I think it works pretty well.
