The Whitelist section doesn't work, the word section is a bit over done, like I can't say "gay" without it filtering it out, AND I can't even whitelist the word! That makes me mad. But I'm glad that you can blacklist certain words/phrases though. It no longer works on my Chrome after a certain update.

It worked incredibly well to begin with.. then suddenly stopped working (perhaps due to a Chrome update?) Either way, contacted the developers by email, and got no response; hence the rating to reflect both the now useless app, and lack of resolution or contact from the developer.

It would have been nice if it didnt filter the word "gay". Gay is not a cuss word and should not be filtered.
