Why do I see "You're not signed in to Slimjet yet"

Why do I keep seeing "You're not signed in to Slimjet yet" even though I am using Slimjet and when I click on that link, it want me to install chrome?

this is a feature of the chrome browser engine which allows you to sync browser settings, appearance, and open tabs across computers being used one at a time or at the same time, if you sign into (and remain signed into) a gmail account it will go away

After signing into gmail you can change the sync settings

you can be signed in and set it so that it does not sync data if you don't want to make use of the sync feature

here is information on syncing tabs which also spells out how to access the sync controls

chrome support

I find the sync feature handy and use it to import my favorites when I install Slimjet on a new computer. However, it will not import your Form Fill data which I think is perfectly OK as I would not like that data to be in the cloud.
