| 2025-01-17 |  | | en | Once I'm able to get some money, I'm thinking of donating regardless what I type here. Hopefully it isn't difficult. I really like this extension because of how nice it is and how it skips ads. Someone here has mentioned something about the chat not being in dark mode. It doesn't really even save dark mode when you apply it in the chat window in the extension. For it to save, you have to go to the actual twitch website > go to some random offline stream chat > pop out the chat window > then you apply whatever settings you want there. It will then save and be displayed however you want in the extension. Maybe that is a limitation or maybe it could be worked better in the future. I do also hope for 'whisper' to work at some point but I'm not a extension dev and I may not even use it myself but would be nice. Not really a request for 'whisper'. Next thing is 7TV, I would like this functionality as well. Testing the extensions that were said in the description didn't work for me or maybe I'm just out of the loop but I know they were installed correctly. 7TV does combine both of them so you would only need just one extension then. Btw, I have also tested 7TV but it still doesn't work or maybe I'm missing something else. I feel like I might've had more to mention but my brain is probably lying to me. If I do remember, I'll edit this review. Other than that tho, I do really like this extension and hope it gets close to feeling like a good twitch experience as possible but remember to take breaks. Thank you for this great extension! |
| 2025-01-15 |  | | en | legit amazing. from what i've seen there's some reviews on complaints about the design compared to twitch but - you get no ads, you get a nice ui, customisation, and some settings you don't even get in the normal twitch website! please donate to these coders/developers they deserve some money so we can all continue to enjoy this. i wish i could but i currently don't have money to give... but please do if you have some money to shill and are against the intrusivity of modern-day internet! edit; all the features in the description even top the things i've said in this review... legitimately 6/5 stars. |
| 2025-01-15 |  | | en | Cool idea, but 7TV not working is unacceptable. Someone here wrote it is compatible in the reviews, but it obviously isn't. Also the chat on the "full feature" mode is always white, ignoring the twitch dark mode. If SOMEHOW it could be made compatible with 7TV this would be great. |

| 2025-01-10 |  | | en | People do a lot of yapping about this extension. It skips ads which is all I ask it to do. Quality can suffer for a bit but fixes itself quickly. |
| 2025-01-02 |  | | en | Reviewers cannot read before posting, IT LITERALLY SAYS use FFZ & enable BTTV/7tv... done, works with ALL emotes. Dude said "can't read my follow list bro" this extension recommended "Twitch Now" for that purpose...however I recommend "Steam Live" instead as Twitch Now is defunct. To use "replay" feature, you have to pause first. No documentation in help other than "keys are on tooltips"... App does everything it said otherwise, I'm just daft or have interfering extension? |

| 2024-12-24 |  | | en | Really f....... chrome for what they do, they make us remove this perfect addon (and all different other extensions) |
| 2024-12-23 |  | | en | This fixes all the problems I have with the Twitch player at the cost of ruining the rest of the site. Popout chat no longer works, this doesn't work with my translate extension, and I have to go to a separate page to see my followed channels. |
