Review summary

Users praise Hard Refresh Button as a simple, reliable way to refresh pages with one click, complementing or replacing Ctrl+Shift+R. It’s noted for being lightweight and easy to use with no extra permissions. The main drawback across reviews is poor visibility on dark themes, with repeated requests for a white/grey icon or a theme-aware version to improve locating the button.
Pros
  • Simple, clean, and useful add-on that is easy to use.
  • Performs a hard refresh as advertised and is reliable.
  • Lightweight with minimal permissions (does not require extra permissions).
  • Works well across sites and scenarios (helps with dynamic content updates).
  • Well-received as a handy replacement for reloading via the keyboard shortcut.
Cons
  • Icon is hard to see on dark themes; the button can be camouflaged on dark toolbars.
  • Requests for a theme-sensitive icon (white/grey) or dark-mode compatible icon.
  • Some users want better visibility or a dedicated icon to locate easily.
