en | I am crypto currency follower and i set my ABU for Currency Changes on my bookmarks and it did a nice work i keep tab open and it is all time updating the bookmark as title changed over seconds. Pretty Fast <3 What do i need from publisher to get it better. Please create same Extension for Firefox Because Firefox also ios/mac. I thank you a lot for this idea. If you can give GitHub page for Open Source Code i would like to check if it is safe to be sure only. |

It works well, thanks. I have a couple suggestions: - it should only update the bookmark when I open the bookmark in a tab, then navigate somewhere else on the site. At the moment it's updating the bookmark when I go to any page on the site. - fix the youtube timestamp history problem that another review mentioned | |

This is a simple extension and it works as intended, although there aren't many options for you to choose from. I wish there was an option that it could remove the "(ABU)" that gets added to the bookmark's title (I did read the review where this isn't possible, though), although this doesn't matter much for me as the browser I use let me disable bookmark titles, so I only leave the icon on the bookmark bar instead. However, this extension does have big problem. In websites that change URL dynamically, the extension, for some reason, will keep those URL changes on your browser's history and will also change the address bar accordingly. Now this might seem obvious, but the reason I'm mentioning this is that, despite me not enabling ABU on Youtube, and only having an ABUkmark in one website, Youtube videos will always update the address bar on the top to include the "&t=" string. This string is updated every second, provided you keep your mouse over the player. This is quite frustrating when I want to copy and paste a video to a friend and having to remove the string beforehand, and the biggest problem is that these tiny URL changes floods my browser history a ton. So if I watch a Youtube video, every time this string changes, it gets saved on my browser history again. I watched a 42 minute video yesterday, and my browser history has 442 instances of the same video but with a different value for the timestamp string. This is even more frustrating when I want to visit a website by searching the site's name on the address bar, and I only get results from the many instances of the same Youtube video. I managed to fix that by using Chrome's "Site access" option that every extension has, and only included the website that I'm using the bookmark from. However, if I had to use for a Youtube bookmark, let's say for a long Youtube playlist, then I would need to deal with the history flooding and constant change of the URL. I don't recall this problem happening before... it could be related to a Chromium update (Google Chrome engine) that messed up with the extension's code. Other than that, it's a cool little extension. | |

This is awesome! Is there any way to make ABU not change the bookmark's name or logo? Thank's! | |

Great add-on for keeping track or my anime and tv series, I wish i had found this years back. Simply to use, yet effective and clean. I'd only like to be able to keep a custom name for my ABUkmarks. Thanks for keeping this extension updated! | |

The addon is so simple to use, one time setup for each bookmark which takes all of a couple of clicks more often than not. After that you can just read like normal and it all happens transparently. The only problem I had with it is it failed to sync across devices using the chrome sync. However the latest update promises to support syncing, I haven't had a chance to try it out and will do when I get home but given how everything else works I'm happy rate it with the assumption it will work as described. |
