Its selecting everything and does not give any control to select. When I enabled, it started selecting everything and then I disabled this app. I feel its worthless.

I am totally confused at the positive reviews. As far as I can tell this extension blindly selects 10,000 photos so you can then click delete. Why would you want to do that? This extension gives very little control of what is selected. Am I using this tool wrong? It seems to me that I am to follow these steps: I do a query search, perhaps for a date range or for a person; and then I click the extension for it to automatically select ALL the photos that meet the search query. It would be very difficult to craft a query that deletes only what I want deleted. People, am I missing something? What I want is a tool that will do "stack and keep the best" like is available on my pixel phone. I want an automatic tool unlike on the phone it can only do one photo stack at at a time.
