Extension summary

This is a fix for Tab Sleep Timer by Daniel de Haas which has a bug that causes the add-on to stop working if a timer is ever cancelled. This bug also exists in the Firefox version of the add-on. The original add-on has not been updated for months as of the time I am writing this, so I am assuming it may be abandoned and I decided to offer this fix. If the author fixes his version I will remove this one.

User reviews

It works only if the extension window/popup is open. But if you set timer and close the popup then the tab is never closed after timer expires. And please make it remember the last time was set.

This one actually works instead of crashing.
