Latest reviews
- (2023-09-09) Michael: Looks promising. But failed at first hurdle for me. Unable to add vault permission with error "showDirectoryPicker" is not defined. Installing on Brave Browser.
- (2023-08-25) BZQamy: Be Cautious. this extension needs permission to access local folder e.g. vault folder. I request you to please experiment with empty vault. I found only this obsidian web clipper that append clipped contents directly into vault. I am experimenting with this obsidian clipper whether i should stick with this or not ??
- (2023-08-23) Avataar admin: This extension finally did it what other extensions said it is impossible. Only web clipper extension in whole Chrome web store that save web contents directly into local disk. I thank developer for this amazing and time-saving extension. But it has one caveat: Write permission revoke on reload tab or re-open Chrome browser. You need to grant permission again.
