User reviews
I do love this app, but every time I enable it in Firefox, the fan in my 2022 Vivo Laptop kick in. When I open >> More Tools >> Task Manager, I see that it's eating up 42% of the CPU. The moment I disable the PulseSMS addon, the fans stop and CPU use returns to nominal. This is some bad coding, it needs to be looked at.
