User reviews

I love this extension. It's worked well for several years, but now I'm worried that Amazon or Google have changed their settings to keep it from working as it had. I've sent an email to the developer, and I'm hopeful it is user error (though I didn't change anything). Otherwise, I'd go to Firefox if this could be released for that browser. Regardless, thank you for this! It's my absolute ride or die extension.

Works! Almost perfect! Be sure to visit the Help link in the extension for instructions on how to whitelist headcanon's email address so that it's added to your approved senders list on Amazon. Only downside is that since Kindle's last update, the Title of documents is pulled straight from the filename. Since Headcanon uses dashes for spaces in the filename, you wind up with Titles on the kindle with names like : "An-Almost-Perfect-Story"

I was looking for sth like this for ages! Finally can have tons of ffs downloaded by one click, not bothering to go tab after tab.
