Bharat Bhardwaj (ID: 000000eeaab011e8) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/04/2021 This is absolutely amazing! :-) I am a blind screen reader user & struggled with getting to know the page status updates in Chrome. In between, i used a lot of third party extensions but none of them came even close to this one. I would like to thank the developer for the hard work & request them to maintain it in future as well. *Update* I had written across to the developer highlighting the issue of an error sound at the time of launching the Chrome browser which was promptly fixed by the developer via the update issued on the 03 July. In case you are also facing any such difficulty, please go ahead & update the installed extension to enjoy the fix.
