en Does exactly what it says it will do, efficiently and smoothly. Unlike the experience of other reviewers, there are a number of email clients you can use. Right click when you're on the desired web page, select the "Share link via email" and you are presented with five choices.

en Works well for sharing a page via my web email (Outlook). Nice that you can activate via a keyboard shortcut It would be nice if, once activated, you could navigate the different options via arrow keys, tab etc (but perhaps not technically possible?) Minimised this to some degree by deselecting all the email options except Outlook so now just shows Outlook and Options but requires the mouse to select Outlook so hoping key navigation can be added if possible

en After the latest Chrome update do not work anymore with local email client (like Outlook or Mail) on a Mac. Just with online software like Gmail or Office365. Maybe developer can update.

en I've used this for a long time and Chrome's latest update disabled it completely. I just worked through the issue, and it appears that even though it's on in the extensions, when ou re-install it, it shows up for a second at the top right of the screen, then disappears. You now need to click on the extension button and pin it, for it to work. It no longer works by right clicking. You now need to use the button. This is chrome screwing things up. Welcome to the new MS company, google, the company that likes to take what works and make it different for no advantage, just like my android.

en The extension was excellent until Chrome updated the browser with the most recent version and now does not function. Removing and adding the extension does not resolve the problem.
