User reviews

The Ethereum Gas Price Extension is praised for its simplicity, accuracy, and unobtrusive display of real-time gas prices on the Chrome toolbar, helping users save time and money. It maintains user privacy by limiting permissions. Common requests include adding customizable alerts or notifications for gas price thresholds, options to adjust refresh rate, displaying fees in USD, and enhanced visual cues. Despite these, users find it highly convenient for monitoring Ethereum gas prices efficiently during transactions.

Pros

Simple and easy to use interface that provides quick access to current Ethereum gas prices.
Highly accurate and updates gas prices rapidly, helping users save money on transactions.
Does not request excessive permissions, preserving user privacy and security.
Conveniently displays gas prices directly in the Chrome toolbar icon, allowing glanceable information without interaction.
Saves time and money by informing the right timing for Ethereum transactions.

Cons

Lacks notification or alert feature when gas prices cross user-defined thresholds.
No option to customize refresh rate; updates are slower compared to some other services.
Missing the ability to display transaction fee costs (Tx fee) or gas prices denominated in USD or stablecoins.
No option to set visual indicators like background color changes based on gas price speed categories (e.g., Slow, Fast).

Works perfectly. Would be amazing if it could notify me in browser when the number passes a certain threshold ie Base Fee goes below X sends off a notification.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Ethereum Gas Price Extension does not require any sensitive permissions.
