The chrome extension is great when/if it works. Unfortunately, it doesn't work often.

The extension is working great for me (despite the Southwest Airline feature, which has already been stated by Wanderlog to be "currently disabled), and it's made trip-planning way easier and more convenient. I think Wanderlog does such a great job in providing convenience and enhancing both efficiency and organization when planning a trip. I look forward to more features that will continue to enhance the user experience!

Very bad. Poor navigation, bad interface, low to search and charge.... You have to manually selct text and search. It is absolutely the same as having two windows side by side, on with wanderlog and one with map. Simply make it add a "add to wandermap" button in Google maps and that's all.
