- (2023-08-31) Isaiah Richards: Unfortunately updating my review after realizing that for some reason shift is also used for account switching. This leads to refreshing the page whenever you type anything requiring a symbol. Should not even be a thing.
- (2022-08-09) Georgi Kirilov: Needs better support for disabling the shift + key shortcuts otherwise a solid extension
- (2022-07-20) Bobby Bates: It works! Super helpful to flip between multiple Gmail accounts. On Mac, use Option ⌥ rather than ALT. Thanks, Aditya!

In version 1.0, the keybinds SHIFT + 1 through SHIFT + 0 all have meaning within the extension. However, those keybinds are harmful, and should be at least toggleable (if not removed), because if users want to use any character which would have otherwise been typed in by using those key combinations (like how SHIFT + 1 should result in an exclamation mark), then they simply cannot type in those characters without the app registering those commands and triggering a page refresh. (Moreover, this application should generally limit its use to a small list of websites including google.com exclusively, regardless, to avoid this problem even more, but also because it has no need to act on websites that it has no use for)
