Works great for me with edge and iOS, didn't need to do anything to configure it, just installed the extension and worked without problem. LOVE IT THANK YOU.

Good, but I also want to manage my list from my desktop computer's web browser and there's no UI for it in the extension. And also I'd like to choose a reading list while saving (since I may have many on mobile), and not everything saved to go to the default "Saved".
