Scott Ellis (ID: 00000057c4c74373) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/18/2023 Excellent, minimal extension. Good UI, and works well. Finally Chrome can behave like a normal browser for downloads.

Xitee2 (ID: 0000002269b84138) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 11/16/2022 Great addon! Really love it. But it would be really nice if you could make some improvements: Dynamic size or selectable size of the displayed downloads per page. Currently there are only 5 downloads per page which I cannot change because there are no options. Second thing is that there is a little bug with the progress bar and missing symbolic when downloading. The progressbar often stucks at the beginning after downloading something. Only after clicking on the addon icon the progress bar works. And a good improvement would be to do some animation so I know better that a file has started downloading.

Muhammed Enes D. Uras (ID: 0000009cc84c5222) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/27/2022 it needs to open up when you download something automatically. That would be awesome.
