Description from store
Google Chrome Extensions are auto-updated.
This is cool, no doubt about it, but how do you know when an extension is updated?
You don't until you install this extension.
▸ You will receive a notification when an extension is updated.
▸ If the updated extension has a log of records in its Chrome Web Store description, you can view it directly from the extension.
▸ And unlike other extensions, it also works with disabled extensions.
If you also think Google Chrome should provide an option to toggle extensions updates notifications, go star this issue at http://crbug.com/28556

Latest reviews
- (2023-03-31) Darwin Gutierrez: As of 2023, this chrome extension is still working.
- (2022-07-22) Noor Aldeen: I have some advice for those who did not work with this extension .. At first, thank you very much to the developer because this extension is really the best in terms of the feature you have .. I would like to say that this extension no longer works for me a long time ago on the Edge browser, but I resorted to that I downloaded Version 2.3.1 of crx4chrome.com and install the extension in developer mode with less features but it works .. Or you can install the extension that is called NooBoss It has the same feature but the extension image is not displayed only the name .. Also an extension but does not display notifications but appears The updated additions are at the top of the list.. I hope someone has benefited from my comment.. Thank you from my comment.. Thank you ................................................................................................................................................... عندي بعض النصائح لمن لم تعمل معه هذه الإضافة .. في البداية شكراً جزيلاً للمطور لأن هذه الإضافة فعلاً هي الأفضل من ناحية الخاصية التي تمتلكها .. أود أن أقول أن هذه الإضافة لم تعد تعمل عندي منذ زمن على متصفح Edge ولكن لجأت إلى أنني قمت بتحميل الإصدار 2.3.1 من موقع crx4chrome.com وتثبيت الإضافة في وضع المطور بخصائص أقل ولكنها تعمل .. أو يمكنك تثبيت الإضافة الذي بإسم NooBoss يوجد به نفس الخاصية ولكن لا يتم عرض صورة الإضافة فقط الإسم .. أيضاً إضافة ولكن لا يقوم بعرض الإشعارات وإنما تظهر الإضافات المحدثة في أعلى القائمة .. أتمنى أن يكون أحد إستفاد من تعليقي .. وشكراً
- (2022-05-17) Phil: As of 2022, this extension is still working fine on my chrome.
- (2021-02-19) MK Terra: The extension still works fine on my end. The changelog-viewing feature requests an extra site permission though, which you can allow or deny.
- (2020-02-28) Robin Hood: not working for me any more, but this one can do the trick (SimpleExtManager)
- (2019-08-12) Ahmed Hassanein: pretty awesome, thanks!
- (2019-03-15) Reset 77: Doesn't work and was never updated
- (2019-01-12) Jim Underscore (Yazz): I downloaded this years before the most recent update (June-2016). As of Jan-2019 it has never worked. So I highly recommend: "Extensions Manager (aka Switcher) Offered by: cmrd.Kaash". It can do what this extension claims, has always worked for me even [as a long time beta+dev 64-bit Chrome user testing lots of experimental flag settings]. Includes convenient quick management tools and it has 95,000 users. [As for me - I'm now deleting this abandoned extension forever].
- (2018-09-08) Aldo: Genial!!! Nunca mas preocuparme por actualizarlas, hace años que la uos, Muy Buena!!!
- (2018-07-20) Roy Pardosi: ok
- (2018-05-22) Robert Orzanna: Works great and a fantastic way to be notified of new extension updates that potentially include fixes or new features one requested. :-)
- (2018-05-22) Isaac Oh: Never gave me a notification, but I think it is a very cool extension
- (2018-04-23) Leo Ch: It not work on Vivaldi,but Chrome OK
- (2018-02-08) Mustafa arıc: güzel
- (2017-12-29) Gersivan Oliveira: Funciona.
- (2017-10-26) Stahn: Works fine, helps a lot
- (2017-01-07) Alan Miller: Has been very handy in letting me know when extensions are updated, and I'll note that it has been working fine for me (current Chrome on 1/7/17). Its notifications even reminded me of a Chrome App I'd installed but was no longer using and could remove.
- (2016-12-23) Nicholas Kwan: It's a pretty heavy extension. Constantly about 50-60MB. Is there a way to just keep a log of everything and not have to keep the extension active at all times?
- (2016-11-10) Tony S.: Doesn't work. I haven't seen any notifications so far and I've had this extension for months.
- (2016-10-30) Andario Andrada: I installed this more than a month ago and I still haven´t seen a single notification, even though several extensions have been updated indeed. Using latest 2 stable versions of chrome.
- (2016-10-06) Emmette Coleman: A must have, if you care about extension security! Here's an excerpt from an article by Ron Amadeo: arstechnica.com/security/2014/01/malware-vendors-buy-chrome-extensions-to-send-adware-filled-updates/ “[Y]ou are basically giving [the owner of an extension] permission to push new code out to your browser whenever they feel like it. To make matters worse, ownership of a Chrome extension can be transferred to another party, and users are never informed when an ownership change happens. Malware and adware vendors have caught wind of this and have started showing up at the doors of extension authors, looking to buy their extension. Once [...] the ownership of the extension is transferred, the new owners can issue an ad-filled update over Chrome's update service, which sends the adware out to every user of that extension.” Basically, not knowing when an extension is updated is a security risk. And even aside from security, it's good to know when an extension is updated. Now, if the only extension you have is an ad-blocker, there's not much point in using this extension. But if you have even a few extensions, I'd strongly recommend installing this. And if you have more then a few extensions, it's a must have!
- (2016-09-27) 布丁: 實用
- (2016-07-12) The STE: Très bonne extension - c'est une option qui devrait-être intégrée par défaut dans Chrome OS !!! Un grand MERCI au développeur.
- (2016-07-03) Amir Emami: A must for a power user. Now everything is under control and I know when extensions update.
- (2016-06-08) Cyril CHARLIER: Super pour une application qui affiche le changelog, pas de changelog depuis la 3.1 ....
- (2016-03-04) Inazarab Xela: It works,. but the notiication only pops up for a second and then disappears. so I don't have time to read what it says
- (2016-02-28) Toni Scheel: keine Benachrichtigungen mehr
- (2016-02-12) 唐门: it's very useful,thx.
- (2015-12-01) Will Smith: Well it works if you happen to be sitting there and see it. Otherwise not anymore.. Why? Google's fault of course! Chrome 47+ (now stable) has removed the desktop notification center. Sites can set NotificationOptions.requireInteraction to indicate that the notification should remain onscreen until the user dismisses it. So looks like that will need to be done to make this useful again.
- (2015-09-30) Tim: Needs to notify when Chrome itself starts to update, and when it finishes installing that update. Nobody ever knows when it happens, and people could be inadvertently corrupting the program halfway into install while trying to put their computers in shutdown or sleep.
