Fantastic extension. Was an absolute lifesaver during Step 1, paid for Step 2 studying during M3. Worth every penny. Only request would be the ability to toggle off the orange/green/yellow bars telling you where to find question material. Can be a bit distracting and buggy at times. Either way, works brilliantly.

I'm not sure what happened, but all of sudden the app stopped working. The add-on looks different than before and there is no anki button on my Uworld review page. I have checked the clipboard query box and the SCW Uworld box.
