I really like this extension and how easy it is/was but I find that it crashes frequently. The other issue I'm having is that when you capture a page It keeps giving me the error message 'Sign-in to keep creating more capture links, collaborate on PDF's and more. 🙈 You’ve reached the max number of capture links (3) as a guest user' I sign into my account, but it still get the message when I try to capture a page. In order to use the tools I need to take a screenshot using my computer function and then go into Instacap > Create a project and upload the screenshot and then I need to go to 'My Projects" to select it before it opens. This never was the case; I could always capture a page and immediately it would open in Instacap/capture board. So I don't know what has happened or changed but I don't use it as often due to all these new steps.
