Travis Bemrose (ID: 0000002ca770aa23) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 10/19/2023 NOT a tool to edit Chrome's built in form-fill data. It's a replacement tool.

Mel Gibbs (ID: 000000478fff6e57) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 07/06/2023 This remembers literally everything you wouldn't want it to and hardly anything you would hope for. Way too unprotected. If any unwanted individual or software infected your computer it is just a click away from revealing literally all of your personal info, what it belongs to, and matching website information along with timestamps. Moreover, saves things like credit card numbers when you tell google to NOT or NEVER remember the information when prompted, and without even obtaining verification or giving the option to password protect the numerous pages of logged fields within the extension at least. This is already breaking the content privacy & safety requirements that Google states it upholds through its offered extensions in the webstore.

NSPRO TDBIS (ID: 0000006f2002d759) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/30/2022 Excellent extension. This can save you a lot of time in case of a problem, or when you make a mistake with your browser

Nonaym Foryu (ID: 000000640f7ab773) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 04/28/2022 This used to work amazingly! ...Until it stopped, which I only discovered thanks to having a post I had spent several hours on eaten by accidentally clicking away. I'm pretty sure the whitelist feature just doesn't function properly, and without that it clogs up the browser memory with input I don't care about.

Ed Love (ID: 0000005f31fad115) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/27/2020 Absolutely superb! I can't add anything to what the others have said. A life saver.
