| 2024-08-28 |  | | en | This extension is not bad for what it does, but I found it a little buggy and didn't always work correctly for counting words/characters. I ended up using Word Counter (Tally) as it has similar features and isn't as buggy. |

| 2024-07-26 |  | | en | Useful so far, but unreliable since it counts em-dashes / double-hyphens as separate "words" (so this parenthetical -- like this -- would count as 14 words, not 12). Not sure how it'll do with other punctuation oddities. Glad it measures the longest word but kinda wish it gave me the longest word as well (or at least the first word with the longest letter count). |

| 2024-06-07 |  | | en | Hello, I hope you're having a splendid day! I am currently seeking opportunities to expand my business operations by investing in extensions with a significant user base, beginning from 50,000 users and up. No matter if your extension has a modest user base or counts its users in the millions, I am interested and ready to negotiate a purchase. If you are in possession of such an extension and looking to turn it into a profit, please consider reaching out to me. We can discuss the price and proceed with a transparent and secure transaction through a trusted escrow service based in the United States. It's great that Google allows the transfer of extension ownership between accounts, so your Google account ownership will remain intact. If you have any needs, please contact us via the following contacts Whatsapp: +1 (248) 896‑8035 Telegram: t.me/harryysandersonn |

| 2024-05-17 |  | | en | Nice tool. I like it. But wasn't a fan of the need to highlight texts. |
| 2024-05-16 |  | | en | You are a gentleman and a scholar. Works great. Character count and longest word length too? Kudos. |
