Andrew Stanton (ID: 0000009a1dde94bc) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/27/2023 UI is messed up. Everything is truncated so you cant read what its reporting. Seems to be a technique to get users to buy another service.

Bot CoPas (ID: 0000002ca4b68965) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/21/2023 i found error because enable this plugin at localhost, please fix at sources > console Unchecked runtime.lastError: Could not establish connection. Receiving end does not exist.

Tan Yuexi (ID: 00000096ec545e65) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 04/13/2023 I followed the steps in description, but it won't work... Nothing happens when I click the extension. I have turned on its access to url and incognito.

Sebastien Robin (ID: 0000004df03fdf37) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 01/27/2022 Your Chrome extension seems to function really well however does not allow me to check/click on errors because scrolling is not enabled, so I signed up thinking it would fix the issue and it did not. A bit of a waste of time.

Ember N (ID: 000000c6ebcd98f6) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/11/2021 OH man FINALLY! went through 6 accessibility tools. This one is for designers who just need to see visually what is wrong. Plugin has a faster way to show specific elements you need to work on in your URL. It will also be good for devs since it also gives them the code that suggests the changes to be made. This one will be kept in my extensions along with Adblocker! hehe
