User reviews

Couldn't get it to work. Tried full name provided by Chrome dev-tools, as well as explicit class names. The app isn't verbose enough (or at all) to tell you what's going on, what's happened, or why it isn't working. For the developer I'm sure it's very useful. For someone new to the app, I gave up after five minutes and went to something else. Definitely room for some improvements here, especially for newcomers.
