Не работает авторизация, в топку!

The extension is amazing! This extension has saved me aplenty of times for a while now. Though, there is a feature i wish was a part of this extension. The ability to choose an optional setting which would make a new bookmarks file each for each backup. My reason for this addition is a simple one. One of my computers that I haven't been signed into for a long time was needed for something I was going to do. I signed into the Chrome Browser on it, and as soon as I did the outdated bookmarks overwrote my much recent bookmarks. I hope this does indeed become a feature, or at least my review would be read. Thank you for making this extremely useful extension, and thank you for reading (hopefully) my review.

Edit: The bookmarks were not actually overwritten, but the bookmarks were just added to my existing bookmarks. I was a little hasty in my review, however, I still wish for this to be a feature (my suggested feature, of course). I believe many users could potentially benefit from having multiple backups. Thank you for reading once again.

Good potential but entirely killed by two big problems -- no way to restore the bookmarks and the extension keeps losing the login to my Google Account.

Having a backup is great and I'm really glad that they chose to save the data in my own Google Drive rather than try to create their own cloud for saving as this gives me full control over my data, however without a way to restore the bookmarks, it only solves half the problem. If I were to have a catastrophic incident, what am I supposed to do with the Google Sheet with all of my bookmarks?

Also, since installing it I have periodically (every few days) opened the extension to double check that it is backing up the bookmarks as desired. Unfortunately, I have found that every single time I have opened the extension, it has lost access to my Google Account and so it is only making local backups. Accordingly, I have to login again to get it to make backups to my Google Drive. I've not had this experience with other similar extensions that use Google Drive for the datastore. So something is broken on this extension and it needs to be fixed for it to be useful. After all, what's the point if it makes only local backups and then my local machine is lost or corrupt. The whole point of the extension is to make backups that are off of my local machine.

So, really good potential, but useless with those two key problems (thus the 2 stars). Hopefully the developer is able to fix these two problems which would make the tool a lot more useful.
