Sadly, doesn't work in Edge due to the completely unnecessary dependency on Chrome-specific Google account integration.

It sounds like a neat tool but within 20 seconds of adding it to chrome, it prompted me to purchase a premium plan, saying my four day free trial was up. Presumably, this is just a bug but if it's too buggy to deliver a trial period, it's probably going to be even buggier with a paid plan.

Extension randomly said my "trial" expired when I have never used the extension before and had installed it just a few minutes ago.

Turns out it's a 4day trial -_- after which the addon disables itself and only serves you their adds.... How is this allowed on the play store? :/

Immediately downloaded it and then was told my 4 day trial "expired". Can't even test the tool out, even though it looks nice. Either offer a limited trial, update the info or pull the "free" plugin.

Excellent extension. I'd love to buy it and support the cause, but 600 SEK *per year* is *very* expensive for a tool I only use once a month or so. Might you be able to find a pay-once pricing model?

promessing tool but expensive. you can get many UX designers with a lower price.

I am autistic. And I loved Hyperactive Henny as a tool to explain what I see or hear, not just during web use, but also during meetings and other events. THANK YOU for considering autistic individuals in your filter. We really do experience different things on the web, for me it's because of the higher difficulty in filtering and determining importance of ideas and images. Thank you.

Fantastic plugin! Will be extremely useful for building empathy among designers and developers working on web applications, as well the general public! There is one glitch, when you turn off Dyslexia Dani, it kills the webpage. Great work, well done!

For quick and to-the-point testing, I've not found anything that gets remotely close to this. It does exactly what it says on the tin and provides real-world, tweakable otherances to let us as developers see how the general public will. Massively useful.

Never seen an accessibility extension like this before. It's amazing.

This extension injects a stylesheet with unscoped class names, including `modal` which clashes with CSS on some sites that use the same class name, meaning I've had to disable the extension. It's a shame because otherwise it's great!

I rarely rate extensions unless they really stand out Your extension certainly does especially in how it attempts to add a humanistic element to the simulations. This is worth getting by anyone working in web accessibility or disability awareness. I've requested the W3C consider its inclusion in their resource page for accessibility testing. Great work and it always make an impact when I demonstrate it! This may be a tall ask but could you potentially include a hearing related simulation particularly around tinnitus? This would help raise awareness around those developers still relying on audible clues only on a site.

Really love where you are heading with this plugin. It really helps to create empathy and provide insight into accessibility that the technical WC3 checkers cannot. One suggestion is a keyboard shortcut to disable/toggle the mode. I say this as I've just been struggling to access the plugin to turn off the shaky mouse setting. I particularly like how you have preset/personas. Like I've said above, it really helps to humanize the plight of others. Nice work.

It's a great tool to test for accessibility. Love how easy it is to use. Thank you!

This extension is really informative and fun to use, but there are still a notable number of bugs to fix.

So easy to use. Would be great if we can save settings as presets so we can elaborate our own user cases for especific projects. Thanks, awesome work!
