Great app! Is there any way to keep it in full screen mode when using an auto refresh extension as well?

Precisely what I wanted, and it just works. Lets you gets the maximum of your screen real estate by hiding the the tab/toolbar/bookmark/etc ui without rescaling anything either. Works in Brave as of the date of this review.
