- (2020-09-29) Joseph Brewster: I am using this on a MacBook Pro on Chrome and I love it. I was using Colorzilla, but I had a hard time recovering previously sampled colors, and the picker was super laggy. This works much faster and creating swatch groups is easy. I recommend!

- (2019-07-23) Melia Turk: It wouldn't work for me when I tapped on it but maybe it was just my Chromebook. :(
- (2019-07-22) Roman Mohar: Excellent Plugin! Very nice! (I am a graphic / web designer) It would be even better if you could name group, maybe even the colors, but at least the group. ;)
- (2019-06-26) Booya Off: OMG! Best color extension ever! Meilleure extension d'infos sur les couleurs, bien au dessus colorzilla et les autres!
- (2019-06-23) Станислав Садыков: Отлично
- (2019-06-09) Zefa_ir: works prefectly
- (2019-05-23) laura messaglio: L'extension est efficace et facile d'utilisation. On peut rapidement créer une palette de couleur avec une facilité déconcertante! LE + : c'est que les fichiers crées sont exportables pour la plupart des logiciels de création. Dès l'ouverture de l'extension, le design sombre et minimal permet de comprendre rapidement son fonctionnement. Aussi, certains détails comme l'indication des raccourcis clavier démontrent bien la qualité de cette extension. Sans surprise, je recommande !
