Nice Downloads! Extension

Nice Downloads! makes downloading on Chrome pretty nice.

It automatically shows and hides Chrome's download shelf when starting a new download, and notifies you when one completes.

It also features a toolbar button that will popup the downloads screen, and the icon changes colour when you have active downloads.

If a download is interrupted by Chrome, the shelf will remain open until you interact with it.

This extension does not contain a persistent background process, and has minimal permissions! That's nice, isn't it?

Alessandro P (ID: 000000581a3b4ee8) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 02/24/2017 almost perfect please let the user choose the duration of the notification upon completion your time is really too invasive(6-7 seconds)!!!

Paul B. (ID: 000000e8459e52fc) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/18/2016 Does the job very nicely. I only would add changing the toolbar icon when the download is complete. Great job. Thanks.

Moo Scree (ID: 00000084547bf9b7) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 04/17/2016 A very nice, small extension for its function provided. Suggestions: -Option to have the download list open in a tab instead of a separate window. -Option to not display download notifications. -Option to set delay before the shelf is auto-closed. -Option to not display the shelf at all.
