Help

Nothing is being applied to

Check the Dashboard checklist and press Fix. Then check that Chrome is open with the extension connected.

"Sign in to LinkedIn in your Chrome"

Sign in on linkedin.com in that Chrome, then press Start again.

The extension says "file couldn't be accessed"

Its folder was moved or deleted. Remove it in chrome://extensions and load the folder again.

"Daily free quota used up"

The free AI tier has a daily limit. Job Bot carries on tomorrow, or add a Groq key as a backup.
