The extension ng-inspect works in Chrome 93 and 91. There was a bug in Chrome 92 that broke many extensions, including this extension. More information about the bug is at this link: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1232063&q=1232063&can=2 This is a great extension. I recommend upgrading to Chrome 93 to make the extension work.
