It displays a dropdown menu of pre-configured items when a user types in a textbox, providing users with an intuitive way to input text. Its setting options are stored using the chrome.storage.sync API, but data isn't encrypted, so entering sensitive data is not recommended. This first-time JavaScript app is open to constructive criticism.

I wish I could just double click, but this is better than nothing. Thank you

El nombre lo dice: simple, pero efectiva, pinchas en el cajón escribes la primera letra y aparece la frase que quieres poner en el formulario. Estaba harto de andar corrigiendo el autofill de chrome, nunca rellenaba los datos correctamente, prefería hacerlo a mano. Ahora solo escribo la primera letra de mi dirección (bastante larga por cierto)y voilà
