2021-08-15 | Anbuselvan Periannan | en | It crashes the manifest v3 extensions and please remove this extension from app store. | |
2021-05-22 | Guokai Han (Jackie) | en | Don't use it, this app is very deprecated by Google. And it causes other manifest V3 extensions crash (when send a message). See https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1180566 | |
2021-02-20 | Dan Bugglin | en | This 2014 app seems to break modern extension development causing them to crash. Do not use. The capabilities are built into Chrome now anyway. | |

2020-01-08 | Tyler Tricker | en | Evertime i click the load unpacked button nothing happens. Apparently it is supposed to load some kind of file browser so i can select the correct file and load it into the application, however when i click nothing happens. | |
2019-11-04 | Hansly Saw | en | It is simply a windowed version of the Extensions page—which is better than going to the extensions page itself. However, this sometimes happens. When I import an extension, it rather deletes its source file, making it unable to import. Now I was not able to find that extension anywhere, and by the way, I am using M70 (as I liked the old UI of Google Chrome by turning on a 'flag'). You can't also pack an app that is not on the list, but in my opinion, that would be fine especially if you are just packing those you have added in the web browser and the Extension DevTools app. | |
2019-01-29 | Jake | en | Hi, can we get a new version of this? Since Google's pushing out more Chromebooks now it might be a good time to do something for developers | |
