Yuja Verity deserves an award for being the absolute worst school proctoring software I have ever had the immense displeasure of encountering. My school is currently in a contract to use Yuja, and I sincerely wish they had chosen literally any other software instead. I would prefer actual malware to Yuja, even, though given the issues with not shutting down recordings despite saying it does, needing to monitor your entire computer even through incognito tabs, and requiring you to have your voice, screen, and web camera all accessible, Yuja is already glorified spyware in of itself. It has the most horrendous optimization I have ever seen for a software like this and it doesn't even work. Having this on my computer genuinely made me feel unsafe and creeped out. This software seems to fail to recognize built in webcams yet refuses to let you take any exam until it can detect one. Restarting your computer, uninstalling and reinstalling, not even searching through Yuja's own troubleshooting recommendations will help. For some strange reason, it does, however, detect built in microphones just fine. Then it tends to crash, resulting in tests being submitted before you're done, if it even lets you take the test to begin with. If you are a college administrator or in other similar position, and you're considering Yuja Verity as a proctoring software for your school, please do the students and yourself a favor, and stay as far away from Yuja as you can. Everything about it is sketchy and thrown together, and you're better off finding a different proctoring software to use. I assure you, there are plenty of fine options out there for you to choose from, and unlike Yuja, most of them actually work.

honestly liked the idea of this extension and it has been incorporated into the tests that I take for college. however I came across a lot of issues and haven't been able to get to to load to the tests without having to redo it over and over again. sometimes i even have to uninstall and reinstall it.

Very, very buggy. It also causes problems with my keyboard and mouse after the exam is done, so I have to uninstall it every time and reinstall it for the next test. I couldn't right click, and all my keyboard shortcuts (ctrl c for copy, for example) were disabled. For the entire laptop, not just a certain website!
