| 2024-09-22 |  | | en | It keeps asking me to log in even though I am logged in. I cannot get it to work. |
| 2024-05-08 |  | | en | This really needs work; it's not consistent nor reliable enough to work with at the moment. Captured text remains highlighted and / or ~|:; inserted into text on some web pages after capture, with the only way to clear the these being to disable / enable the extension. Quality of text capture is patchy to say the least. Sometimes formatting is retained, other times one long scree of text is captured with no formatting. There's no full web page capture, other than screenshot. Not entirely related, but there's no zoom on the Windows app, making text captures almost unreadable on hi-res displays. I also made the mistake of paying for an annual sub before spotting these issues, and have had no response from the developers regarding anything I've raised, or my asking to cancel the sub through the Desktop app (there's no direct support contact anywhere in the app or on their website for paying customers). All in all this is a really poor user experience & I'd advise anyone to steer clear for the moment. |
| 2024-02-19 |  | | en | Lots of friction issues. It's very not good at selecting the right tab if you have multiple browser windows open - especially if one browser is fullscreen. It also seems to be an utter memory hog. |

| 2024-02-11 |  | | en | It's very annoying that I can't select more than 1 (new) tag when creating a bookmark: the extension wants me to press "Enter" for adding a tag at the same time this "Enter" triggers note submission. Quite bad UX |
| 2023-10-23 |  | | Useful but still too much friction. Look at TickTick/Todoist global hotkey, you press a button, type a few things, and boom you are done. There should be a default option at minimum for quick adding. I should be able to type "[] Buy Milk @Shopping in:today" and have a task added to my daily jot with a reference to my grocery list. even though now you can see how cumbersome even that is. | |

| 2022-09-10 |  | | en | this is an essential tool for my amplenote workflow being able to set a DEFAULT TAG would save tons of wasted keystrokes. PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! also the "clip highlights" mode only grabs raw text, adding links and jpegs would be a nice improvement |
