Jerry Jose (ID: 000000c03901610a) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 09/21/2021 The interface is clean. Really loved the extension. Small suggestion, kindly add an option to change the unit of time remaining. I prefer to see the minutes remaining than the days remaining.

Saeed Baig (ID: 0000002e39df551d) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 04/10/2021 Great minimalist, dark design. No clutter; just a simple countdown til when you die. Some things that would be nice though: - More accurate survey/method to determine when you'll die (e.g. based on gender, habits, etc) - A way to customise the time format (instead of just days, can we show years, months, etc?)
