Chrome extension (and Opera one since 27.4.19 as well) does not work.

Was extremely promising until it wasn't, the snippets do not save in real-time on the sidebar as they mentioned. I tried it on two browsers- chrome and brave. It seemed to work better on chrome, however, after just 1-2 highlights made to a page, the rest do not show up on the dashboard or the sidebar. Somehow, web highlighters stop working for me after a short while. Disappointed :(

Perhaps one of the few apps with a really easy PDF viewing setup, it falls flat when after waking your computer next, it fails to instantly show more than 3 pages of highlighted text, when the 4th page appears empty I need to play round until itll finally work again for the next 3 pages. Admittedly my PDF file is 22 pages, the length isnt uncommon for uni so this fails to deliver

I just started using the free version, and I've highlighted 7 parts of a page, but when I return to it, although the number of highlights is correct(7) and the highlights exist in the right panel as well, 5 of them are not highlighted on the page. I have very few other extensions so I'm almost sure nothing's interfering its functionality. This can be a very useful extension but this was a buzzkill for me to see it not working in my first experience.

The purple pull out bar always gets in the way. The apps I use have pull out bars and the x is on the top right corner. I have to disable the extension just to use my web site properly. Slows me down. Other than that. This has worked out really well. I think it's soo cool that it pulls all my underlines from kindle.

Doesn't maintain the formatting of highlighted text. The line breaks get removed and make the highlights an unreadable mess. Please solve this bug. Other highlighters can do that.

It's a nice extension but it could use a lot more options in it's settings menu. Two things I would like to see is an option to not have the highlight options pop-up display when only selecting a single word(To only display the pop-up when selecting multiple word sentences), as well as an option to only display the pop up when selecting words and holding a key like the Ctrl key or Shift key.
