This extension is okay, despite being a legacy extension. However, it is not reliable in the default "auto" mode. To make this extension reliable, you should either: 1. Start recording a specific tab, then load the page, wait for the tags to fire and then stop the recording and view the results 2. Disable the auto mode, and enable the extension before you load any page on that tab. We've been debugging why Google Analytics 4 doesn't always fire on our pages, and after doing a lot of modifications and debugging we found that this extension was not reporting tags correctly in the default auto mode. I hope this helps others debugging their installations.

Bug report: This extension attempts to read document.body.nodeName, which is not guaranteed to exist. This pollutes my console with tons of errors on sites that have a null value for document.body. Also, the support forum link on this Chrome Web Store entry goes to a dead page.
