en | really really good idea and for the most part is very helpful but i am so sick of wanting to do something simple that the website offers but then the page goes unresponsive??? without fail every single time i try to add a comment to something it goes unresponsive and makes me reload the page. it is incredibly frustrating. |

Excellent app and overall very easy to use. My one major issue is that there's no way to collapse all your topics for a project without manually doing so one-by-one. This is especially annoying with when using the popup sidebar since there's no way to have the program auto-scroll down to a specific topic on your list. I want some kind of "expand/collapse all" command. Also, if you HAVE collapsed some topics and left others expanded for some specific reason, but then load a new tab and bring the sidebar up again, it will still show all of the topics fully expanded. I will happily change my rating to 5 stars once this has been addressed | |

This is an extremely intrusive app, and blocks a portion of the screen with its obnoxious button. It also tried to insert itself into anything you highlight. The interface is difficult to understand and even glitches out and forces you to redo stuff. If it was not required for my class I would have already deleted it. When this class is done it goes bye-bye. | |

A great idea with a lot of potential use, but it has some major bugs which alter basic browser usability in Chrome on Windows OS. Primarily, it can create quarrelsome interactions such as deselecting highlighted text in form fields (as one might to change/modify search terms in complex queries of academic databases). I found these bugs also prevent you from using search -- period -- on services such as Factiva. Due to these incompatibility issues with some essential services, I can't recommend this plugin. I've emailed the developer to let them know, and they were prompt to respond. Regardless, once these issues get ironed out -- especially the ones which break basic browser usability -- it'll definitely be an A+ service. | |

Love PowerNotes, and use it daily. Working on a couple of book length works, and this has significantly streamlined my writing and research. | |

If you are an academic, student, instructor, or otherwise just a person who has lots of interests but a hard time keeping track of them then at least watch the full promo video so you see a waide range of the extension's functionality. I started using Power Notes last year and wrote a brief letter to the developers thanking them for the ease and utility this app has added into my day to day for work as a researcher and hobby as a writer. I have tried using Evernote and Pocket as well as other less well known notetaking apps but nothing was designed with anything close to the ease of use as Power Notes. This is especially true if you use the ext for professional or academic reasons given its built in citation generation, export tool, and organization optimizations. Really, get this tool. | |

This checks so many boxes for what I've been looking for a long time. I do wish it had ipad/iphone apps for when I'm not at my desk but I can see how that would be a drastically different function from what the browser app does really well so the tradeoff for me is far worth it. |
