When I summaries a page, it only generates "Summary of AI Summarizer". Disappointed with the extension given how wonderful perplexity is. Monica is an excellent extension that this extension can take inspiration from.

It needs to retain the most recent prompt / answer when you re-open the window. This could even be a toggle to DO or DO NOT keep the prior prompt response. This would let me pull information from the window to let me return to it again since it closes when you switch tabs or do anything on the page. Strangely there are some scenarios under which it will have the prior chat when you reopen the window but I've not detected any pattern as to when or why that happens. I've basically stopped using it because I can simply keep perplexity web open on another tab and get that needed persistence from my chats.
