The Best App.

This is the best and only extension that I had found that works with my desire to create custom spelling corrections and shorthand substitutions across most sites, ironically not this one. I am losing my mind thinking it will be disabled because not having access to my shorthands will destroy my productivity. Desperately trying to find a replacement but first I'm begging this extension is left to assist us!

This is a perfect extension for me. But Google will soon remove it. So sad.
