Aaron Adams (ID: 000000a66954f2f8) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 05/31/2018 What the description of this extension doesn't tell you is that the accompanying Windows Store app costs $4.29 Why do we have to pay $4.29 for something as simple as this, which should be a built-in feature in the first place? Not to mention that it was impossible to search for the app on the Windows Store; I was required to install the extension and then click the link in its options page to find it. To the developer: Please tell people in the description of this extension that the Windows Store app costs $4.29. It's misleading otherwise.
