It doesn't even work
by Francis Costigan Francis Costigan, 2023-09-13

I love it, annoys everyone who uses my computer including my self. Why would I rate it 5 stars if it annoys me and many others? Well it simply does everything it is supposed to do, works like explained in the description. Would recommend for anyone. :D

It works and it's real annoying, but it's way too subtle. Maybe add an option to choose the frequency of typos?
