User reviews
I really apreciate this extension, is very useful! specially the blur feature for me.
I don't know if there is a problem with my particular browser but the hide button is not working at all. So I can't hide the sidebar. In my case I mostly wanted to be able to blur so it's not a big problem for me, but anyways can someone help me out with that, please?
I'll next write down some suggestions as feedback:
1- It'd be cool to have shortcuts to show/unblur and blur/hide while in Whatsapp web. So yo wouldn't need to have the toolbar floating in any part of the screen and still have the possibility to interact with the extension functionalities.
2- Within the extension settings, It'd be great to be able to set an amount of time in ms for the show/unblur action, or at least make it last longer than the actual duration. Even hovering unintentionally, it's fast enough to show the content by mistake.
Thanks again, and good work!
