User reviews

I am a new user to the extension and couldn't be happier. The developer is very helpful at working on ways to improve it. Robert needs a way for "us users" to reward him for all his hard work.

Awesome! Simply Awesome!

I am loving this extension for Chrome! It makes it so easy to find errors in profiles, as well as standardize common issues such as dates and places. I really like that you can have it run a validation process on family groups and not just an individual. It saves me so much time when I can take care of an entire family rather than looking at it person by person. The developer is amazing in that he is constantly making improvements to the extension as he sees the necessity. I recommend this to all the people I meet in the Family Search Center, where I volunteer, as well as the German Genealogy Group, where I am a member.
