There is no Trash Button. Notes accidentally deleted will never be recovered. Even temporally notes, the user might need to keep the material for later reference. User at risk of disappointments and risk of notes accidentally deleted and not recovered.

Simple and does the job, nothing more. I love it. However, this extension may not exist much longer, and I wish the developer would update this extension to follow chrome's new guidelines, if possible? Please? re: "This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions."

Sync does not work. Deletes new notes and does not update regularly.
