User reviews

Didn't work even though I went through the whole process.

Does not work and made my browser messed up.
by Psykeman, 2024-01-27

This extension has completely destroyed my Chrome browser and I had to perform completely fresh install, losing all my browsing data, login cookies and my actual dayjob work data. Avoid at all cost. Not worth the penny they offer.
