Quick Questionnaire

Heads up — what happens next

When you click Start study, the extension will:

  • Open 8 small Google Maps windows in sequence — 4 personalized (signed-in) and 4 incognito.
  • Auto-scroll each map and collect the restaurant list, then close that window automatically (~30–45 seconds each).
  • Take about 5–10 minutes total. You can leave this tab in the background while it runs.

Please do not close the windows manually — let each one finish on its own.
