| 2024-12-12 | BK | | This isn't about the "freemium changes." The extension simply doesn't work anymore, there are no "free 10 profile executions", it literally doesn't work at all. Everyone can't be wrong. This doesn't instill confidence of me wanting to pay for the full version. I'll find an alternative. Edit: Found one, AutoFormer+, works better than lightning ever did and is free. Surprisingly much easier to use. We just want the basic function of auto filling certain form fields.. this is just simple coding. All the extras you plan on adding are just bloat and a poor excuse for charging money for things no one asked for. |

| 2024-11-12 | Jahn08 | | I filled in all the options, then tried it several times and now it constantly shows me a banner that I've reached my daily free limit of executions, even though it's been a week since I saw this warning. So, now this extentsion is completely useless for me. I'm just wondering what definition of a day they use - seems like the Mercurian day or for heaven's sake the Venetian one :D |

| 2024-10-23 | lmb | | This app has stopped working now. I'm not talking about the fact it's gone to a freemium model, I mean the autofill for a lot of fields has just stopped working |

| 2024-10-18 | Dee | | Only works unless you actually filled out the form on that specific site before. What's the point? Why do you think I want to fill out a form twice? Why can't you make it so that it recognizes a simple First Name Last Name across various websites? How hard can that be? Cannot even program basic functionality to work correctly, jeez ... |
| 2024-10-12 | Sexy ESXi | | You have placed yourself in the "freemium" echo chamber. Good luck with that. The very fact that you have to defend your actions under "About this extension" show that you knew you were taking a chance. Guess what? You made a bad choice. Do like other developers do. Offer a free trial with an option to buy. I have paid for many applications throughout the years such as SecureFX, UltraEdit, etc. I don't MIND paying fifty or sixty dollars once I reach the upgrade limit. Like most recurring charge pimps, you hope that people will sign up and forget or stop using and that minuscule charge will stay under the RADAR and keep enriching you. What you DON'T DO is blindside users with a sudden "B*tch! Where my money?!". Don't cry too hard when your extension goes titz up. Uninstalling after posting. |
