The extension shows lessons/reviews available before they are ready, in my case it is always ahead a few hours of the review forecast. The only useful feature I have found in it is the "auto expand item info" when using WaniKani.

Doesn't work anymore, and support has been dropped. Not worth installing.

It does work now, it would be nice if it'd update the review count right after I've finished my reviews. I.e.: I had 4 reviews, I finished them all but I still see badge saying "4" until the next update cycle
2021-01-24 Raoul Dobal Great for getting those quick reviews in when you have a couple of minutes time between work stuff. A resizing option would be great. The "window" is a bit small - hey, one is not getting younger ;-)

Unfortunately it's not connecting to the website, I wish I could use it to review as an extension it would be awesome if it could be fixed

Stopped working after WK removed the V1 API. RIP
2016-12-03 A Google user As others have said, the number of lessons/reviews don't update automatically. This isn't a big deal, but it does make the extension slightly less useful.

This extension is great, I really love the option to show notifications when lessons/reviews are available, It's perfect, yes sometimes it doesn't update the number of lessons/reviews and you have to restart the browser, but aside from that is perfect. I just have one suggestion for the developer, maybe add a slider or a way to control the volume of the notifications? Is too loud for my taste.

Looks great, but it doesn't update unless I click on the icon - even with the update interval set to 5 minutes.
