| 2022-11-02 |  | | Not working on Mac OS Ventura + Chrome. Tells me the extension isn't downloaded when it is. When I click on the icon in the extensions area, it tells me the companion mac app isn't installed, which it also is. Occasionally I'll click the ⌘⇧E hotkey and it'll switch to an article view, but most of the time it tells me to install the already-installed components. In it's current state, it needs updating. | |

| 2022-10-24 |  | | Not working with macOs + chrome. Both app and extension installed but when I want to activate quiet reader I always receive and error message extension not found. It wants me to enable the extension or download the mac app however everything is set as it suppose to. Tried it in Safari and it works seamlessly even without any need of extension, just the mac app. So I guess the Chrome Extension is causing the problems. Fix would be highly appreciated. |
