en Doesn't work anymore after update EDIT: I have the desktop app running in the background v2.27.0. After a bit of digging, I found out I had to open desk app and go to "Connections" > "Enable". Even after that, when I entender the vault code... "Failed authenticating: Background task failed: Desktop request failed: 403 Forbidden". Have to do even more digging now :( Sorry, Perry, I know this was something you didn't want to do. Desktop and iOs apps still work perfectly though EDIT MAY 20 2024 - Don't know what changed, I tried to connect the extension to the Desktop app and it worked, without any extra work. Works again

es En lugar de mejorar, creo que retrocedieron. Ahora la experiencia de usuario es muy mala.

en Thank you for developing a new version! It took little time to get it running, but that has to do with me needing some time to get used to new solutions. Once I understood how to pair the desktop app with the browser extension all works as expected.

es Estoy dando 5 estrellas aunque no es el mejor momento para una calificación. Llevo algunos años utilizando esta herramienta sin ningún problema, todo muy sencillo y vinculado al drive de google desde varios dispositivos. La versión v2.26.2 ha dejado la herramienta practicamente inútil, aunque confío en que su equipo ya esta trabajando para solucionarlo.

en This new version 3.x is really annoying. The setup with the desktop application has not a good user experience and the popup menu to open and type the password to unlock the vault is not use friendly at all. I think a good enhancement to let the password be typed on addon and sent it throughout the connection to the desktop app. The experience in having to change windows is not that good

en The browser extension stopped working for me after the recent upgrade. The reason, I discovered, was because my app version was too old. Version 2.6+ is required. Installing it and enabling browser access got me up and running again.
