- Rated 4 out of 5by Kelson, a year agoUseful for when you want to make sure the pages you're reading will still be around in some form in the future, and to easily get at additional context. (Just remember that it checks *every page you view* against the Wayback Machine, so turn it off when you're not using it!)
If you enable auto-save, be sure to add to the exclusions list so it doesn't waste time trying to archive your webmail or control panel.
There *is* a private mode where it doesn't do anything until you ask it to. But that leaves you with essentially the same features as a pair of bookmarklets to check or save the current page. - Rated 5 out of 5by Niklas, a year ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Nyaa, a year agoGood, but we should be able to enable private mode before the extension makes an automatic connection.
As of now, you can only enable private mode after already accepting the terms and then the extension makes an automatic connection before you have time to enable private mode.
What good is private mode if you can't enable it before the app forces a connection to be made? - Rated 5 out of 5by Laura, a year ago

- Rated 2 out of 5by sh, a year agoNormally I love this so so much, but as of lately the save feature just doesn't work. I have to manually click on the little calendar to open the site, and then save it there. Not sure why this is the case
- Rated 4 out of 5by MarsSeed, a year agoIt's a staple addon for me. Could use some enhancements: e.g. more granular auto-save period config, RegEx support for blacklist, and also allowing to use a whitelist and/or an "always enabled for saving" list.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Amderos, a year agoReally useful for websites and there versions that are not available now.
BUT I want to suggest to edit button that actualises archived page when it's opened through wayback machine page - Rated 5 out of 5by Quonit, a year agoI love saving things to the internet archive this makes it so much easier to save while I browse
- Rated 5 out of 5by Yoshixi, a year agogot this running in the background autosaving pages. hasn't saved anything sensitive yet, i dont think. good niche feature is when you have a site that is countryblocked or that requires javascript, you can just go to an archived page. also it just feels really good to save some pages while browsing like i get some merit points to the afterlife or somein
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 17987766, a year agoNeeds to support mobile browsers (e.g. Firefox for Android; Developer resources: https://extensionworkshop.com/documentation/develop/differences-between-desktop-and-android-extensions/) with all the features (where possible) from the desktop browser add-on version including the auto save page functions.
