andrej almasi (ID: 0000006806e859e4) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/22/2021 I have bought it now, but I am little bit disapointed because of the auto scroll. I have set up for e.g. on 100.000 or 60.000ms of scrolling speed, but after while it runs away again. Does anybody the same problem? This feature I value very much, unfortunately it doesn't work well yet. thx for answer.

Heidi Peterson (ID: 00000068c56c8f78) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/23/2020 The support is out standing. If the html, php, javascript or css (page code) is faulty, the extension will skip that section, which is to be expected since the extension is coded to read proper code. Otherwise, this extension is a lifesaver for my boys when they are researching for school. Both boys are dyslexic and their teacher recommended this extension for online homeschooling. I highly recommend it as well!!

Peter (ID: 000000510dd2df4a) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 06/28/2020 Text gets corrupted when saved. After highlighting and saving file, when revisited there are many issues with missing apostrophes and hyphens, text replicated, etc. The errors weren't there first time through. No way to clear it up, even after deleting the saved file and starting over. I contacted developer in early May and no response. Not useable for the main reasons I paid for Pro.
