Q: yahoo finance issues

I really like the idea of your product, however for yahoo finance I experience multiple issues:

1. It doesn't support displaying different time ranges like 1 day, 3 months, or 5 years, just 1 day is possible.
2. On some snaps, it just shows just a loading screen instead of the actual chart.
3. The loading time for a refresh is very long, even though I have a fast computer and internet connection.

Do you have any solutions for these problems?

A: Hi there!

Thanks for reaching out! Here are some possible solutions to the issues you're facing with Yahoo Finance:

1. If the URL doesn’t change when applying different time ranges (e.g., 1 day, 3 months, 5 years), Kaptr won’t be able to capture those changes since it conserves the original URL.
2. For the issue with loading screens, I recommend increasing the snapshot delay by clicking on the snapshot and adjusting the time before it captures the screen. This should allow the page to fully load before the capture is taken.
3. Similarly, for long refresh times, increasing the delay will help ensure the data is fully loaded before the capture is refreshed.

Let me know if this helps, or if you need further assistance!

Best,
Robin
