Toggle Fullscreen
Adds a simple fullscreen button, plus toggle via the context menu.
Add a full screen ⛶ button, plus a toggle within the (right-click) context menu, so that the window state may be changed (without resorting to the keyboard, i.e. F11, or the built-in Ⓧ broken dropdown button in the current GUI). This extension provides the additional benefit of properly preserving the window's prior state upon exiting full-screen mode.
2017 Update:
Chrome officially added their own context menu item that reads "Exit full screen ... F11", once already in full-screen mode. Ironically, their official update still does not function properly, as it does not restore the window state to the state it was in prior to entering full-screen mode. Therefore, please take care to distinguish between the two. The correct button to use, in order for this extension to provide the expected behavior, is the one that reads "⛶ ⊤oggle Fullscreen", (i.e. the context menu item that this extension creates).

Doesn't work anymore. :-( Does anybode have a tip for an similar extension to get in fullscreen-mode on a touch-monitor? thx
I clicked on the extension, kiwi browser did not go fullscreen contrary to what the instructions say. Conclusion: doesn't work on Android 14/latest kiwi browser (playstore)
Just what I needed. Quite useful when Im in VR streaming movies on Bigscreen, and Im bits away from the computer. I love it.
Enters full screen with right click just fine, but doesn't exit full screen to the state my window was in when I entered full screen (in my case maximised). I installed the add-on to remove a couple of mouse-clicks from my workflow, but when I have to maximise the window after I've exited full screen, that means I have to do the same number of clicks total as for the normal Chrome method. So it's functionally useless for my needs, though in fairness it has to be said that the "entering full screen with right mouse menu" works as advertised.

Needs fullscreen to window feature.

Калич какой-то! Полноэкранный режим без кнопок/жестов навигации. Для навигации нужно возвращаться в обычный. Так при обратном переходе еще и сам хром на пол экрана становится.
Simple, elegant, useful. The 3 best qualities of any extension. Now I've got one click to fullscreen my Chrome. This one will be staying.

Amazing extension but there is a small thing should be fixed .. whenever I exit the fullscreen the entire window becomes minimized and I have to maximize everytime.

When you exit full-screen, the window is resized from its previous position

It does full screen but: Problem: after (F11) it does minimise the window. It´s annoying to maximise the window again. I want hide the frame of window and bookmark bar without to use my keyboard (it´s a compact one: need to wake it up first then press "fn+F11"). There is another app, which does full screen but does´t minimise the window after.

I love this extension. On some sites where fullscreen doesn't work it makes it work and to exit fullscreen, you can eighter click ESC or right-click then click exit fullscreen.
I thought this would be the answer because I like to put my keyboard aside and read long stories in html, and it's a hassle to have to pick up my keyboard to go to full screen. I would read long pages in html and when the story got toward the middle and lower end of the story, whenever I used it it would lose my place. I'd engage full screen and it would change, but after a second the screen would split and I'd be looking at place farther down in my story. If I was far down enough the screen would simply go all the way to the bottom of the page. Then I'd have to try and remember some word phrase to search for to find my way back. The stories were usually made with Calibre, reading with Brave browser on a Windows 7 PC. I'm going to uninstall it.

It works, and that's important. Better than Chromes inbuilt full-screen exit button, as others have noted in their reviews. I wanted a full-screen option in Chrome which didn't rely upon f-11, because on my PC I have to toggle between using f keys as usual or using them as their context markers show (most important is that sound controls and full-screen controls need an extra keyboard shortcut to toggle between, which isn't ideal).

Perfect. Does exactly what it claims to do and nothing more: "Adds a simple fullscreen button, plus toggle via the context menu".

Works well... EXCEPT when your window is maximised and you toggle [ ] the fullscreen button it goes into fullscreen ok but when you toggle it again (by pressing F11 or the X when pushing the mouse to the top of the screen) in order to return to the maximised window, it sends it to the RESTORE state and not the maximised window state that it started from. So it doesn't exactly replicate the F11 function key operation. I just wanted a clickable on screen button that would exactly simulate the F11 key.

Excellent, simple, and does not access personal information.

Exactly what I've needed for years! My chromebook's fullscreen button has been broken, and the main reason I stopped using it. Thank you for the utility!

Exactly what I was looking for. Just wanted a button to add to my tool bar. No ads, no "fancy" features and no special permissions. Does what I want and nothing that I don't.

Outstanding! Thank you for resolving this problem which is even more evident on the chromebooks that convert to tablet format (making the keyboard unavailable).
