Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Still works well in current TB betas (now 94) ... after I edit the max_version in the manifest.json file so it will install and be enabled.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.5.2). 

Provider for CalDAV & CardDAV

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Now support for Google gmail.com accounts has been added, this is an essential great add-on, and much better - especially when already using TbSync to sync with a Microsoft account - than using the separate add-ons by other people to sync the TB calendar and address books with a gmail.com account and therefore with my Android Phone's Calendar and Contacts. Using this means one consistent interface to sync with both Microsoft and Google calendars and address books rather than several very inconsistent ones. Just one note for new users syncing with a gmail.com account for the first time - by default Google will only offer the account's main calendar for syncing: to sync with any other calendars you may have added to your gmail.com calendar you have to go to https://calendar.google.com/calendar/syncselect and tick the other calendars you want to sync with Thunderbird's calendar (this is down to Google, not this add-on). Great add-on - thanks so much for this, John.

Provider for Exchange ActiveSync

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great add-on. Allows TbSync to sync the TB address book and calendar with my outlook.com account and therefore with my W10 laptop's calendar and People. An absolutely essential add-on, easy to set up. Just the job.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.8). 

TbSync

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great. With the Provider for Exchange ActiveSync, this has synced the TB calender and address book with my outlook.com account, and now the Provider for CalDAV & CardDAV has added support for Google, it syncs the TB calendar and address book with my gmail.com account too. This means TB's calendar and address book sync with both the Calendar and People on my W10 laptop and the Calendar and Contacts on my Android phone, all with one consistent interface. Honestly, this out to be part of core Thunderbird, but as it isn't I'm really grateful to John for providing this for us. Superb add-on.

TitleCase For Thunderbird

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

This was great - until Thunderbird 68, in which it doesn't work, changing my score from 5 to 1 star. As and when it works again I'll change my review back to the original 5 stars.

This has been great, but it is marked as 'incompatible with Thunderbird 68.0' and disabled automatically in TB 68.0. I do hope you will update it for TB 68.0+.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (5.38). 

Theme Font & Size Changer (fixed)

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great. After updating from TB 52 to 60, finding the previous version of this add-on didn't work and not initially finding this updated version, I thought I was going to have to go back to TB52 just to have the TB interface readable. Found this update just in time. This really is an indispensable add-on providing features Thunderbird should have built in (and it rather beggars belief that it doesn't). For me TB is not usable without this on a 1920*1080 laptop screen.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (64.4).
