Richard Thomas (ID: 000000c9be33f727) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 11/05/2023 Does something. If I get 1 message from 1 number its counts as 1 on the counter. If I get more messages from the same number the counter just stays at 1 instead of counting up. Did not add counter to app version on taskbar. I use the install as chrome app function(upper right corner of address bar in google chrome when on the voice.google.com page). This installs google voice as an app to your PC. I was hoping this extension would put a counter on and highlight the windows taskbar icon. overall meh. Good idea. Pretty niche use, maybe hard to justify the work to make it do more.

Josh Hefner (ID: 000000f2618e63d0) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 05/09/2023 Forcibly reloads my voice tab constantly - even if I'm on a call - which then gets disconnected. NOT GOOD!

Chris Merchant (ID: 000000e73b0cec5c) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/25/2022 Obsolete. Suspect it only worked with Legacy, which is now defunct. Does absolutely nothing anymore. No flags, no nothing.
