en Requires way too much personal info in order to sign up for the Annotate.net account (mandatory to use the extension)! Why do you need to know my salutation, first name, last name, and birth date? For that reason, I AM OUT!!!

en 12 annotations on a free plan with a lackluster 1990s interface.

en Thank you to the developers for their efforts Can you add a few shortcuts to common functions? This is more convenient

en Exporting annotations back into Google Drive often ends up with a frozen screen that says "Loading" forever. You can reload the page and eventually get it to work, but it's totally annoying. Otherwise it's pretty good.

en "Need to upgrade to premium". If you want a working extension without needing to pay lots of money this is not the right extension. Everything costs money on this.

en It is good annotator. Please help me add a new feature where I can annotate on the pdf too and colours should be more for free users too.

en This new update freaking messed it up. Revert back to what it was. My pen does not always register when I am writing and it is so annoying. Literally was the best extension ever now it sucks, revert it back please.

en This app is cool and powerful. However, the current pen cursor is hiding the line, which makes us feel hard to annotate. Can you please change the pen cursor to a dot ?
