User reviews

Hi, please add a feature to auto-transcribe some sites when i access them (can be like a blacklist(only transcribe these) or a whitelist(transcribe everything but these) so i won't have to click the extension button every time, or a feature that would just remember the state of the extension (if it's on or off) for each site independently, or that would just remember the state of the extension globally for all sites for the whole Chrome Anything but just please make it so that i don't have to turn it on every time... Also, how does it know what "accent" to transcribe English text to? Maybe I'm learning a specific pronunciation. Could be cool to choose between British and American transcriptions. Other than that, great extension!
