Not working any longer
I'm sad to report that activating this plugin now blocks content from appearing in the TinyMCE classic editor.

Works Perfectly!
I'm using ACF plugin and was struggling to update the TinyMCE style on my WordPress site until I came across this plugin. It's a fantastic tool that makes the process so much simpler and faster.

WORKING FINALLY
Styles were never called. But I am changing the review to 5 stars because the author helped me to go thru the problems until they were solved.
