Open with Google Docs
Description
Reviews (113 cached)
It's pretty revealing when a years-old extension's developers still haven't even clearly articulated what the extension actually does. It's called "Open with Google Docs," but then also "open-with-word.freefinancetools.net," so... I'm pretty sure it's meant to either open Google Docs within Microsoft Word, or Microsoft Word .docx files within Google Docs, within some unspecified context? But discovering the most fundamental details -- exactly what, or when, or why, or how! -- shouldn't require an investigation by the user, trying to unravel the secrets hidden behind such extraordinarily vague language like some deeply uninteresting mystery. Who has the time, but also needs productivity tools? But hey, that's just me.
Good
I have to leave a review in order to use it 🍆 And it doesn't even work!
super
I dont like how Im forced to write a review about the extension before I even get a chance to use it.
before using it forced me to leave a review such a waste of time , dont download it
Either this extension does not work or it does not work with DropBox !? Or it only works after leaving a review? Stay tuned.
Extension isn't working. Just opens link to this review page. Not sure why I have to rate it if I can't use it first.
This is the woooorst app ever.Always tells me to write.please dont download it
not perfect your application please modify your application
leave a review before actually being able to use it. microsoft is just asking for its butt kicked on this
same as all the others
How can I rate something before I use it.

Terrible.
Writing the review just to get into it

Gave them a 1 star for having to rate the app before using it.
I havent used the app then booom "RATE US" how am I supoosed to rate something i havent used??
didn't even open it yet :/
Can't use it before i rate it
i still not use this app but i reviewed.
Update - I left a review and I still cannot use this extension to open documents. Does not work. I love the chromebook, but I hate that I cannot open basic word documents
how would i know cant use until left a review, utter rubbish in my opinion
rate before you use... it might be good.. who knows..
Why would you require me to leave a review before using the service? LAME.
Having to write before use is dodgy.
How can I write a review before I use the program. I don't get how to use this why cant this be easier
cant use it before i rate it so i dont know
it sucks
I have to review before even trying it
it is not even opening
Shouldnt have to write a review to use it.
god tool
Chrome has this feature built in. I thought this opened the file in the browser, but no, it just opens the document on to your computer. Also the tutorial is not well set up.
you shouldn't have to reveiw it before using it. What is this? A flash game?
Do not like I need to review before opening
What this extension does is have you right-click a link, which lets you save the file as usual, and then it just loads your word processor and opens the file. In other words, instead of clicking to open the file after downloading it, you right-click and choose to open it with Word before downloading it. Since you have to move the pointer down to choose the right option after right-clicking, this extension is actually slighty slower (!) than just opening the files normally. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this extension to anyone.
ı dont liked so badd uh
it doesn't work the way it supposes to
I can't even use it without leaving a review! I hope I can use it successfully after this review.
L do not rate any producted before i have used it there for only 2 stars.
