User reviews
Works very well. The tab doesn't have to be active, it even works when I lock my screen on windows 10. Couldn't ask for better. Thank you!
А можно добавить возможность вводить ещё и секунды? Если нужно закрыть вкладку с точностью до секунды, а минимум только минута,это придётся ждать ещё целую минуту. Расширение отличное, но этого не хватает.
Superbly simple.
From installation to timer running in possibly, 15 seconds.
Thanks for your work on this Jeff.
