by Julia BLN, 8 years agoISSUE! NOT WORKING ON FF 52.5.2esr, 52.5.3 esr !
Got exactly the same problem as described by starlight on Firefox 52.5.3 esr (also 52.5.2 esr) - no icons nowhere (also not in "settings" - neither “available services” nor “my services”), was not lucky enough to get the previous version (STARLIGHT, IF YOU READ IT, COULD YOU PLEASE MAKE THE VERSION 16.7.0 AVAILABLE? SAME REQUEST TO THE AUTHORS OF THE ADDON), but only got an .xpi file of a version 2.1.8.2.1 and am glad at least to have a working addon, but it's tricky to get the actual addresses of the services therein (just for example - there isn't even Google Drive link and the added button with it's address https://www.drive.google.com and Name 'GDrive' remains 'Custom Button 1' and shows errors etc.).
Do not want to give just one star etc., as i used this addon for years and was - and am - glad that it exists and do not want to ruin it, but it's impossible to write smth here without giving some amount of stars, so just took one star away from the 5, thinking, that if there were all 5, no one sees that I'm describing an issue.... A kind of a dilemma ;)

- Rated 1 out of 5by pennypacker, 3 months agoA great extension, with 4 stars lost for the spammy "What's New" notification which appears designed only to drive traffic to the author's website and cannot be disabled.
The notification interrupts the user because the extension cannot be used until the "What's New" web page is opened.
Uninstalled pending fixing by the dev (listen to your users, we don't want to be spammed). - Rated 5 out of 5by Agustín Cantero, 5 months agoIt was exactly what I was looking for. It’s very similar to Chrome’s App Launcher. It’s very useful because I can quickly access Google apps without having to clutter my bookmarks bar.

- Rated 2 out of 5by TeridaxDev, 6 months agoGot this to help with my productivity after switching from Chrome, but the update notification is extremely disruptive and can't be turned off. Too distracting to be worth using anymore
- Rated 3 out of 5by IdealIdeas, 6 months agoIm always amazed by the great updates.
But I cant wait until this app gets arguably the most anticipated update which is to turn off the Update notifications. - Rated 5 out of 5by AUTH-NOVA SMART 40i, 9 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by JJ, a year agoLove it. Use it every day. However, one issue: After every update a notification dot appears on the button. It often lags and I'd have to click on it multiple times before it reacts and takes me to the changelog page. I find this annoying and hope it would automatically launch a new page after firefox restarts.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Arkan, 2 years agoWorks Fine in Firefox 128.0.3 (build #2016034663) on Phone as expected... ...Well, strangely.
Unfortunately.. .. This isn't work on www.google.com.. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17974300, 2 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18465282, 2 years agoGood, but I mean, you would just have a "Google services" bookmark folder on your toolbar and achieve the same result.
