Add-on summary

👋 Introduction Proven to be working on all major video streaming platforms. If it doesn't work for you, it could be a OS related bug. I am using macOS and before I make claims, I thoroughly test it through all major browsers.

🚀 Features The only extension on the market with functionalities that no other extension in this category possess.


▸ Blazingly fast — injection script that manipulates the video is written in plain JavaScript, has tiny footprint and is very fast. ▸ Limitless platforms — not limited to any specific video streaming platform. Aims to work everywhere, including embeddable videos. ▸ Minimal interface — thoughtful design that doesn't get in your way, but provides you with all the necessary options to get the experience you deserve. ▸ Appearance — automatically applies the appearance that you are using as your system preference. If your system is in dark mode, the extension will be too. ▸ Cross-browser — available for all major browsers and tested on Chrome & Firefox. It works in all Chromium based browsers as well. ▸ Internationalization — supports handful of languages, but aiming to support all major languages with the help of the community. ▸ Keyboard shortcuts — customizable within the browser to avoid conflicts with other extensions. Support for activity and mode toggling. ▸ Magic touch — Toggle between modes with built-in pinch inwards/outwards on touch screens, trackpads with multi-touch gestures and mouse wheel while holding CTRL key.
