- Seems bugged. Works fine when I want it to, but then whenever I open a Youtube video in a new tab, a Timer countdown (set for 10pm) will start by itself and persist when I navigate away from the video. This causes unwanted tab closures when I don't notice the Timer start. If this is at all intended, at least let us disable this automatic timer.

- Works very well. The tab doesn't have to be active, it even works when I lock my screen on windows 10. Couldn't ask for better. Thank you!

- Superbly simple. From installation to timer running in possibly, 15 seconds. Thanks for your work on this Jeff.

- What I've been looking for in FOREVER! I previously used two different Tab Closers - one was exactly like this give or take the look & feel, and the other made a loud noise to indicate when a tab was closing - and neither satisfied. But this one...I'm pretty confident in it. Thanks for this extension~ EDIT 11/29/22 - So the extension was updated with Dark Mode support...and it's currently pretty busted. Starting out, it said "undefined" in the text boxes and for awhile, I didn't know to take that text out and put in the numeral of hours/minutes that I wanted the tab to close on. Now it also doesn't show the time remaining when started. Pretty weird but still usable. Just a slight mess...Slight.

- Used to work very well on my computer but no longer seems to function for some reason, Running windows 10. The timer simply doesnt activate when you plug in any numbers for me.

- A perfect timer for those who want to remove their unproductive habits and start effectively using time.
