Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Question: When I enable \"Show screenshot button\" in the Meet Transcript settings page, I get a popup requesting permission to \"read and change all your data on the websites you visit.\" Why does it need access to all sites?

Answer: The screenshot feature uses the captureVisibleTab API to take screenshots when requested by the user. The API stipulates that either the \"All URLs\" or the \"ActiveTab\" permission is needed. However, the screenshot feature requires the \"All URLs\" permission because a custom button is created within the Google Meet UI for users to click.

Jeri Pautler (ID: 00000076b2f191b6) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 10/24/2023 It worked really well for a while and then stopped. All the transcript is written in a big blob of text now with no indication of who was saying what. Basically useless now...

Shayan Akbar (ID: 0000009afab38020) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/23/2023 Its not working anymore!! Basically the same error with the other latest reviews...

B. Eric Oberheim (ID: 00000022ddac9dad) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 08/28/2023 Same as all the other reviews; this worked great until all of a sudden it didn't. I now find myself skimming through a block of text, trying to find a term I missed that *hopefully* was transcribed correctly. Has the developer abandoned this extension? It's been months since it worked correctly.

Jorge Garcia Martin (ID: 000000c96742cee6) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/05/2023 No funciona. Sin actualizar desde hace un año y el desarrollador no responde a los bugs.
