User reviews

I'm sure this is a good extension, but the user flow you all have is atrocious. It says log in, but you make it impossible for users to find it. Send me an email and I'd be happy to consult on your product's user flow. A tutorial shouldn't be required. It should just work and be intuitive. Best of luck.

It doesn't even let you log in to use it. After installation is confirmed, it takes you to their page, WHERE THERE'S NOWHERE TO LOGIN, and if you try login in through the extension, it just sends you back.

Requires Login. Wouldn't let me login, but it's probably my set ups fault.
