Unwanted auto-update, and, update erases user settings and applies multiple unwanted differences from original

You should really try harder to retain our settings!

It would be much more polite to ask us if we want to update, instead of do so without our consent.

@gitcnd the issue here is that the extension was going to be removed by Chrome because they changed the standards and it needed to be updated to continue. See #42

The author (not me) did so at ZERO cost to us, out of the goodness of his heart. Yes, it was a pain to re-set my settings, but it took a couple minutes, and I don't have to watch ads or pay for an amazing app. Be appreciative of "free" things that cost others time.

@gitcnd thanks for the feedback. preserving settings between updates is certainly something we can consider adding. as for the auto-update of extensions in chrome you can control this via the browser itself.

there was a feature request raised in the past requesting Sprint Reader to export settings to a file. this might be a good compromise solution.
