It does not save the credentials of my Mendeley account, so I have to log in every time I start the browser. I don't have this problem with other extensions in chrome. Also in many cases the automatic meta data import does not work, it would be easier to add DOI.LOOKUP to the plugin as the one available in the standalone software.

It had worked for a couple of months, but now every time that I try to log in I keep getting re-routed to the sign in page. I cannot even log into Mendeley from the plug-in, so I can no longer even use it. Update: it started working after a Chrome update.

It is complicated to import a generic web page. No automated title and url import. You have to do everything manually. Even the access date must be filled in by hand. UX is bad

I cannot sign in anymore. After I have signed in succesfully, the sign-in window shows up again and again. This bug does not occur in Firefox.

It is much faster than the old extension. The drawback is that Mendeley has removed the ability to enter notes prior to saving references. Please restore a way to add personal notes to these references when using the extension!

Excellent add on. loved it. Go for it and enjoy adding the references directly by just one click into your library.

Today's update broke the upload from Pubmed into Mendeley... Very sad, as it worked perfectly smoothly before. Hoping for a quick fix!

The Mendeley Importer is comically bad, considering that Mendeley is a nice product when accessed through their website or through a Desktop client. I installed this years ago and it didn't work, and I just tried again today and it still doesn't work (pressing the icon does nothing at all...). If you want a web importer add the "Mendeley Importer Unofficial" to Chrome. It has consistently worked for many years now and was recently updated with a nice new interface, so it must be under active development.
