en Firstly, I wish there were more highlighter colors. Secondly, I hate that it misspells words. When it read Icela, it said Iceilla. This is a bad (but a bit good) extension. Just needs some tweaks and it'll be fine.

en 3 stars because there is no reason why you need this. Also, this extension is useless. Whoever made this extension needs to send to court or something because of the concerns (not the privacy, see the description right next to this text). It is located in Google Docs and possibly Google Slides and when you open it, you see some tools up in the top or in the side which we don't need this because some people might be thinking it could be cheating and stuff like that. It takes space also and there is no point of this extension. Also, auto correct the words feature has already been added to Google Docs. Also, it takes up space where there is no option to turn the tools off or where you can access it by a shortcut while in Google Docs. Also, there are already some extensions that has the same thing without these issues up here or websites contain like this one (not extensions) such as DeepL Write without of these issues. Certain features has already been added to Google Docs or in the device (as mentioned before) such as reading the text you highlighted which it can be done from your device or something else. There are other features that I can't list so there is no reason why you need to use this
