User Reviews
Pros
- Allows users to disable Facebook message 'seen' receipts, helping maintain privacy.
- Simplifies the process of hiding message read status compared to manual router/filter level blocking.
- Works effectively on classic Facebook for blocking message read notifications when no response is typed.
- Helps users manage message visibility especially when checking work messages without wanting immediate responses.
Cons
- Does not work with the new Facebook version, only with the classic version.
- Confusing or lacking clear visual indicators for whether the add-on is active or not.
- Dependency issues or confusion around requiring Container Tabs extension, which may affect functionality.
- The developer's support seems unavailable; add-on page not maintained and should possibly be removed.
