Wouldn't load just buffered whenever I clicked the extension. All I saw was a blue box and an R and nothing happened no matter how many times I installed and removed it. Waste of my time. If I could I'd rate it 0 stars, it's completely useless.

I think it is good but the close button on the pop-up does NOT work!

The new update is nice, but there are a few bugs with the new update. It doesn't update when it already has a read time in its cache. I have to press "estimate read time" twice now on each page to see the updated read time for that page. Thanks for the great extension.

Cons: - Cannot save default reading speed. - Does not gives seconds info, it rounds it up to the nearest minute.
