A necessary evil if I want to send my long PDF reads to my Kindle. Three stars since it was not updated for over a year.

Buttons on Chrome extension don't work. Why create an extension if it doesn't work?

Grace Fuller, 2025-02-04

A extensão é muito útil e funciona relativamente bem. Utilizo quando encontro textos mais longos em sites e quero separar para ler futuramente. Ainda precisa de alguns ajustes para fechar sozinho a tela de visualização (que acho que nunca ocorrerá), mas mesmo assim cumpre seu propósito.
