2024-11-12 Vasil Completely useless. You can expand the macros only in the extension's internal field, not on messenger or whatsapp for example. Do not waste your time
2024-10-30 Peter It seems that you can only expand the shortcuts within the window of the extension, not in other fields in the browser, so unfortunately this has limited usefulness.
2024-10-05 Jaber You are the worst ever. You have erased the old tool to have a new tool with the same name. I was shocked that it didn't work and all my data got lost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2024-05-29 Autumn Only works in the settings page. Literally the only place I can get the text to replace is in the box that says "Type your shortcuts here!"
2024-03-18 Anna I can't open the extension anymore to add or remove snippets. Clicking on the icon just "enables" it
2024-03-01 Maria no funciona
2023-12-01 İbrahim All sites enabled option is not active in the plugin. Please fix it
2023-12-01 Thomas Amending my previous review. There were two issues which led to this add-on not working. One, which was frustrating, was that the saved phrases I had entered were changed during some update, so I had to manually edit them back to normal. The version number was also in there as a phrase which makes me think it was an update that led to the error. The second was that for whatever reason, I now have to click the icon when I want the add-on to work. So now it works like normal, but I'm docking a star for that sloppy update.
2023-11-29 Bambi As of 11/13/23, no longer works. Before then, it worked great for my work tasks that required frequently repeated phrases.
2023-11-22 Bahaa It`s not working anymore on AutoTask
