Summary

Hides your opponents ELO on chess.com so that you can focus on the game without underestimating low level opponents or worrying about high level opponents

User reviews
the one who said this was "useless" is wrong. "Focus mode" on chess.com is indeed helpful, but not when you're starting a new game or trying to navigate to other menus. You can't navigate to any other menu while in Focus mode, so you have to come out of it, see yours and your opponents ELO, and then cry yourself to sleep at night because you're under 400. A few suggestions, if possible :) 1. If you are able to hide ELO for previous games you've played as well, that would be a nice feature. 2. If you were to add the previous feature, I've noticed that sometimes the button will be hidden behind other context menus on Chess.com, usually in the bottom left, which makes it unclickable. Good work! Edited: ELO is shown after the game ends.

This extension is useless. There is a focus mode at chess.com https://support.chess.com/article/859-what-is-focus-mode-how-do-i-turn-it-on , so you can easily hide the ELO. Most likely this extension is not authorized by chess.com, but can collect your data.
