User reviews
5 stars because it's SUPER helpful but I do echo the other user's input. Keeping the website's icon and remembering window size and position on a per domain basis would be WONDERFUL!

M C, 2022-03-03Exactly what I was looking for. Would be great if there was a way back though. Maybe with a keyboard shortcut or a right-button menu entry. But still, very useful extension.

Lennart Reichstein, 2020-08-21Very good for running apps in the browser but I have to agree with Mr Raymond Lam
It will be great when:
1. It allows the user to set the size of the pop-up
2 It remembers the size of the pop-up
