User reviews

This extension likes instagram posts in the background from your account. Don't believe me, use a HTTPS sniffer and see for yourself. You will get instagram warnings when logging into the app, sometimes even softbanned from liking. This is awful, I dont believe how this even made it to the chrome store.

Malware extension! Do not install because it generates likes for Facebook and Instagram posts. Who knows what else it could start doing at any moment. Google should remove immediately!

WARNING - DANGER: Opens a websocket that performs likes on FB/Instagram on your behalf without notice. I call this malware
