It does what it does! This is really helpful for me to track the number of words I read in an article. I'm currently learning Norwegian. Using this tool helps me track my progress.

Icon needs to be pinned. Extension can be toggled on and off. I was getting giddy with joy over this extension when I saw how it counts live (vs click-and-see), especially since it pops up in a more convenient location than the word counter I've been using. However, then it mis-counted something I highlighted.. may be a fluke reaction to data entry areas. Well-recommended for casual use.. For less than casual use, you might double check with another extension. It would be nice to turn off the "Copy & Analyze" part. The redirection to a different site was slow. It would be great to replace that part with a character count which is what I've been standardly using. I just found another extension that is similar and works with characters so I am going with the other one. .
