Rated 1 out of 5
by Tag, 3 years agoI've been paid subscriber for this add-on for years. I'm pretty sure it's the ONLY add-on I've ever paid for. The developer decided that they regret offering a lifetime subscription, and just ruined the add-on to try and get me to start a new yearly subscription. $#%& you.
One of the features of the new yearly 'pro' subscription is the ability to change the font - and the latest update changed the default font to some abhorrent almost unreadable font so you can't change it to something better without paying for the new pro subscription. For 5+ years I have used this with a perfectly readable font and now it's changed and I can't change it without paying. Again, %$&# you. This kind of %#$# is why people are so reluctant to pay for software in the first place.

posted 3 years agoHello there,
I'm sorry to hear about the issues with the font - we did not change the font to be deliberately "unreadable", but since the major upgrade of the extension across all three browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Edge), we are by default using the system font of your machine. Typically, that would be the very same font that is being used in your operating system and the UI of your browser. This change was introduced so that Speed Dial 2 is consistent with the browser / OS typography.
Could you please reach out to our customer support with a screenshot of the unreadable font?
You can learn more about the recent changes to the Premium plans and how the affect you in this article: https://medium.com/@speeddial2/recent-changes-to-speed-dial-2-a9e33a84b62c

- Rated 2 out of 5by Vanco Ordanoski, 7 months agoBasically, useless. Shows the most visited sites, and asks for money.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Tenshi.Ryu, 9 months agoI've been using the extension for many years now and I consider it essential to manage my bookmarks across different devices in a style that's just the way I want it. The features/options this extension provides are great and constantly expanding.
