User reviews

Users appreciate Twitter Custom Color for allowing personalized color themes on Twitter and its simplicity. It works well with recent UI changes when updated timely. However, many users report the extension stopped functioning after Twitter changed its domain to x.com, leading to a need for updates. Additionally, some report that only the Tweet button's color changes while other UI elements remain unchanged. Overall, the extension is loved but needs prompt maintenance to handle Twitter's frequent changes.

Responsive developer who updates the extension to maintain compatibility

Cons

Stopped working or broke after Twitter changed its domain to x.com, requiring urgent updates
Sometimes only changes the color of the "Tweet" button and not other UI elements
Takes a few seconds to load before applying colors
Certain buttons or icons (e.g., write tweet icon) remain default blue and don't get colored
Incompatibility issues after Twitter UI or domain updates without immediate fixes
