• (2023-01-16) C Miller: Also lost this function as of 109.0.5414.75 (Official Build) (64-bit). Alt + left arrow works in Chrome, but not in other apps where backspace is the only option.

• (2023-01-15) Vadim Kantorov: The extension worked until updating to Chrome 109.0.5414.74. Now it stopped working :( It now fails with event.path being undefined in the Content script on these two lines: // Overcomes issues with custom elements wrapping INPUT const target = event.path[0];

• (2022-03-04) Shannon Benzing: Works on my other computers but not on my new one. It keeps defaulting back to "on click". I cannot be changing the settings for this thing on every blasted page I visit. Is this even kept up anymore?

• (2021-06-01) Will Ashley: Doesn't let you denylist certain sites. Some sites have horrible engineers behind them where if you type a backspace in a text area, it will trigger the extension and navigate back instead of actually doing a backspace. You need to give us the option to disable the extension on a per-domain basis

• (2021-03-03) Y 110: いつもながらgoogleはオナニストだよな！ ユーザビリティには程遠いサービスだよ！！ ほんと、わがままな会社だよ！googleは、、、、、、 これだけのバックスースの拡張機能がリリースされて、それを入れている人がこれだけいる意味を考えてほしいものだよ！
• (2021-02-03) Retro Man: After updating Brave to version 1.19.90 on a Mac this extension was flagged as being malware and was automatically disabled. I have switched to the Google "Go Back With Backspace" at https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/go-back-with-backspace/eekailopagacbcdloonjhbiecobagjci It works the same as the previous extension.

• (2020-10-21) Christina Eneroth: This is an essential extension. I have no idea how this basic functionally could be removed from Chrome. It is up to individual websites to warn if the user is about to leave whiteout saving first. That covers backspace, back button in browser, forward button in browser, back button on mouse, forward button on mouse, links, closing the browser, closing the tab etc. Removing a key feature because some sites are broken is stupid!

• (2019-07-19) John B: Its great but a new problem has arisen with Chrome Remote Desktop. Chrome Remote Desktop is now a browser only app and pressing backspace within it (editing text on remote computer) navigates you out of the session - quite jarring! An exception needs to be added for this site, or the functionality for users to omit sites. Thanks!

• (2019-02-01) Corey Ogburn: It would be nice if there was an exclusion list. Very rarely I find a site that handles backspace a little differently like google's remotedesktop.google.com where if I'm connected to a remote machine and want to backspace something on that machine, instead this plugin takes me back a page. 99% of the time this plugin is seamlessly doing exactly what I want, but at least for one website I wish I could disable it.
