Jimmy Daugherty (ID: 00000041432f7fd8) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/10/2023 I'm sure this is a good extension, but the user flow you all have is atrocious. It says log in, but you make it impossible for users to find it. Send me an email and I'd be happy to consult on your product's user flow. A tutorial shouldn't be required. It should just work and be intuitive. Best of luck.

icon

Ariel Moreno (ID: 000000b223639e04) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/22/2023 It doesn't even let you log in to use it. After installation is confirmed, it takes you to their page, WHERE THERE'S NOWHERE TO LOGIN, and if you try login in through the extension, it just sends you back.

icon

Pat MySecret (ID: 0000000f565a0b8a) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/16/2021 Requires Login. Wouldn't let me login, but it's probably my set ups fault.

icon

Darren Woods (ID: 0000003530a5bb57) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/26/2021 Is this extension still supported?? I've been testing the summary button for the past hour on popular news sites - WSJ, Bloomberg, CNBC - and I still have yet to see anything but a blank page come up...

Achala Keshava (ID: 000000c75a7e22fc) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/01/2021 The sign up page for individuals is broken and hard to navigate to. The extension is also broken because i couldn't click on a sign up buttons (google or LinkedIn).
