Eazl (ID: 000000ae409b6de9) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 12/26/2017 Totally not functional. Ghostery confirmed that the Twitter pixel was firing and this Helper was unable to verify that the code was installed. At this point, totally worthless for us.

Michele Eichstetter (ID: 000000b530f4ca14) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 08/29/2017 Doesn't work at all. Tried it at wordpress.com, sporx.com and gearbest.com. All of these sites have a Twitter pixel, but none of them are shown from the extension
