Checker Plus for Gmail™ is widely regarded as a must-have and highly reliable Gmail notifier with a user-friendly interface and customizable notifications. Many users appreciate its support for multiple accounts and unobtrusive design. However, recent updates have introduced bugs where marking emails as read does not persist, causing frustration. Some users also experience errors specific to Microsoft Edge, and the extension currently lacks compatibility with Edge Bar. Overall, it remains a popular and valued tool despite these noted issues.

I've been using Checker Plus for eons and have donated to the developer on occasion. Solid developer and just having the visibility to my email on my address bar alone is great, the quick view even better.
