| 2022-11-26 |  | | Exactly what I wanted for web-based text editors. | |
| 2022-10-27 | | | I love this extension! I have to report an issue though. For some reason it has stopped working on the Archive Of Our Own website, which is where it's most helpful for me. I'm not sure why! | |
| 2022-08-06 |  | | very helpful indeed!!! saved me lots of time:) | |
| 2022-07-13 |  | | This is an amazing extension that works simply brilliantly. As someone who has obsessive-compulsive tendencies when it comes to mechanics like punctuation, I am so grateful for it! 😆 Recently, the extension stopped working on messenger.com and WhatsApp's web version. Will this hopefully be corrected in a forthcoming update? | |
| 2022-06-11 |  | | Very cool application, however for my uses, I don't want the ... to be replaced. I'd love it if we could manually turn off the replacement of certain symbols. | |
| 2022-03-18 |  | | This has helped me in my writing so much! Thank you! | |
| 2022-02-01 |  | | Excellent extension. I love that it supports more than 50 languages. One observation: Smart quotes work if one word needs to be between quotation marks, but it does not work when I need to put a phrase or a whole sentence between quote. In such cases, only the closing quotation mark changes to a smart quote; the first quotation mark remains a straight quote. | |
| 2022-01-04 |  | | Excellent job, it also works with Opera browser!! Changes all my quotes to curly quotes, which is exactly what I've always wanted on desktop but could only get on Apple mobile by default. So happy as now my tweets/posts look so much more aesthetically pleasing. | |
