en Haven't had any major issues with it. Works well for what it is and can quickly verify contrast on page across multiple visual deficiencies.

en Does not really work well, in some cases it detects the wrong colors for for- and background. forground: #ffffff background: #ffffff But on page it is: forground: #ffffff background: rgba(25, 145, 238, 0.8) It also does not respect text-shadows which improve the readability, which is confirmed by people with very bad eyesight.

en Hello, I hope you're having a splendid day! I am currently seeking opportunities to expand my business operations by investing in extensions with a significant user base, beginning from 50,000 users and up. No matter if your extension has a modest user base or counts its users in the millions, I am interested and ready to negotiate a purchase. If you are in possession of such an extension and looking to turn it into a profit, please consider reaching out to me. We can discuss the price and proceed with a transparent and secure transaction through a trusted escrow service based in the United States. It's great that Google allows the transfer of extension ownership between accounts, so your Google account ownership will remain intact. If you have any needs, please contact us via the following contacts Whatsapp: +1 (248) 896‑8035 Telegram: t.me/harryysandersonn

en Great extension for easily finding colour contrast accessibility issues - especially with the auto-update feature. Unfortunately the extension overlays on the page and doesn't appear to update the viewport, so there are parts of the page that are hidden from view that are being analysed that I can't see - it would be good if the extension either updated the viewport so that all items on the page are always visible (similar to how DevTools works) or if when you clicked on an item, it would show the offending element in the DOM or part of the text of the element so it's easier to see what it is. Could do the same as the axe accessibility tool and be available inside the DevTools window to not have to deal with managing the viewport/position. It would also be handy to be able to hide the results for elements that aren't visible.
