User reviews

I was trying to find a way to search and replace text in Grammarly. I tried all the extensions, and this is the only one that works. This app is a little less intuitive than others, but it's actually very simple—it's also very powerful when you know how to use it. I highly recommend it.

Doesn't actually replace the data. Ran S&R for September/ December after I run the screen shows December, when I save the form they all switch back to September. I see in another review that the developer responded by saying it's impossible. "Google Form's data storage and display are separate. This extension can only replace the display content but can't edit the form's core data. There is no way to do this replacement with the technology I know of." I don't see how this is useful if it doesn't replace the data; it's just a waste of time. I guess I'll go back to copying and pasting over and over again instead.
