Simon MACINEIRAS (ID: 000000637dee184a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/04/2023 J'ai testé plusieurs extensions pour faire mes captures vidéos et c'est la plus simple d'utilisation. Je suis très satisfait.

Fun zone (ID: 000000eafef8a239) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/19/2023 I love it. Everything is just the best! But.. please add a 'Reset Settings' button (I just messed up with this :P)

Klysman (Ka) (ID: 000000ed354cd4ac) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/23/2022 Nice!!!

Jurjen de Vries (ID: 0000009f38b8d575) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/28/2021 Works as expected, and best of all free open source. Thanks to the developer Joshua Daniel. Some wishes are: 1) More annotation tools such as drawing an arrow and highlight/blur parts of the web page. 2) Also functioning on elements outside the web page such as right click menu.

Stefan Fleig (ID: 0000008318bca5a8) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 12/21/2021 (Read the updates.) Would be exactly what I need but it feels a bit weird - it works on some pages and does not on others. Doesn´t matter how often I refreshed the page - it never worked on THIS site (chrome web store) for example. On the pages where it worked I´ve tried to adjust the design settings - saved them - but nothing changed. Again I refreshed many times. Some minutes later on another Chrome window the changes became effective. So it does work but it´s a little unpredictive especially in regards to when design changes actually start to show. Update 1: just learned that it´s a google policy that such extensions won´t work on this page here and not the fault of the extension. Update 2: some minutes later even design changes start to work instantly. (not sure why this didn´t work from the start) I´ll give it 4 stars now. Would be 5 if it worked out the gates as it does now and I can understand how some people won´t wait around that long.
