I like it, but it highjacked my new tab in Chrome... is there a way to turn that function off without deactivating the extension completely.
Marie Prokopets
@thebradoliver You can download the desktop app and remove the Chrome app. To add the desktop app from Chrome, just click on the ... on the left sidebar by Activity Feed and select "Manage Apps". You’ll see a Mac or Windows icon on both of those screens, click to download.

@marie_prokopets Thanks!!! I can't believe I missed that, I saw the Apple logo and my mind automatically went to iCloud, not Mac app.

Dang! So good. I’ll use and report back more.
Marie Prokopets
@handythinks Thanks Chris! Can't wait to hear your thoughts, you've been so incredibly helpful with your feedback. Keep it coming so we can make FYI better for you :)

You are moving so fast with the development of FYI. Very nice.
Marie Prokopets

This is a great idea! Although, I'm curious about the security of the documents on fyi. How much information of the docs can you (fyi) read, parse and organize? Can you elaborate a little bit more on how the document owner can keep their information protected?
Marie Prokopets
@tabish_gilani Check out our Protecting Your Documents page & let us know if you have more questions https://usefyi.com/protecting-do...

At a first glance, it looks lovely. 👍 The idea makes sense - search/see all your docs in one place. Would love to check it out.

@atulacharya Let us know what you think once you check it out!

Hi. Trying to install the windows version but Windows Defender won't let it install? Am I missing something.
Hiten Shah
@timehubnz Not missing anything. Windows take a number of installs before the app gets past Windows Defender. Would you mind emailing me what you are seeing? hiten@usefyi.com

Dear FYI - I use my gmail account for business. Please don't block me, or force me to create another email address to use your product.

@stoweboyd You can sign up using your personal email, just select personal instead of work on the "What would you like to use FYI for?" screen

Pretty cool idea @hnshah. Cant wait to try it. Quick question - The hero image on your website shows Evernote....but there is no Evernote integration?
Marie Prokopets
@hnshah @zenunwired Evernote is in testing and coming soon. Please let us know what you think about FYI once you try it!

It gives me a ton of warnings when trying to install the Windows version and then when I try to install it, it says I don't have permissions to access. So I couldn't install and gave up. Just FYI :p
Marie Prokopets
@itswillcurran Thanks for letting us know, we're working on making the Windows experience better.
Sam Legge
can you not search by recent activity for google drive docs that you are actually apart of not just the entire organization's recent activity? Makes it useless otherwise IMO
Marie Prokopets
@d0b0 Yes, you can, that's how FYI works. Let us know what you think once you try it out.
