Recent reviews
Would give 5 stars due to it being good overall, but I give it only 3 now that for the entirety of the time I've been using it, it refuses to go above 10.0 and now they only let me do 2 layers at a time without premium when just last week, I could do up to around 8, which is just greed on the developer's part.

Не работает!

The extension is buggy. It has started to be a resource hog and you can see the slowdown in the browser.
