## Description

## Screen Resizer Chrome Extension

Screen Resizer allows users to safely adjust the active displayable area by indenting the screen edges on all sides. This is especially beneficial for devices with touchscreen issues or those where reaching the screen top is difficult. Users can set the number of pixels to ignore on each side, preview the effect, and then confirm the new screen resolution effortlessly.

This extension ensures a safe and controlled way to customize your screen size, improving usability and accessibility for various applications without damaging device display settings.

## Review summary

Most reviews are negative. The main issues are root dependency, heavy advertising, and unreliable behavior with device/OS compatibility and non-persistent changes. A small number of reviews say it works or is excellent when it runs, but that sentiment is rare. Overall, reliability and ad-proneness drive the poor rating.

### Pros

- Some users report the app is good or excellent when it works.
- A minority notes functionality in preview mode before changes revert.

### Cons

- Requires root to function (repeatedly mentioned).
- Ads are heavy and intrusive (often described as 'ads only' or 'dark patterns').
- Inconsistent functionality across devices/Android versions; some devices do not work at all.
- Changes often do not persist and revert after applying.
- Users report getting stuck on the first screen.
