- (2023-05-26) Cutiefox: Thank you! That's what i wanted.
- (2023-05-13) Chelsea: I really like that this is on the right side which makes things easier for me....however I'm docking a star because if I have several tabs open and then go back to the tab I need the refresh button on it randomly stops working and I have to reload the extension (which means I need to have the extension tab open at ALL times) to make it easier. Would love a fix on that. I'd also like a bigger refresh button. I'd also love to be able to "move" the refresh button on my own tab for personal preference but I don't know if that's possible.
- (2022-12-09) Lucas Pestana: Reload is a good extension overall (and also its companion Stop), does what it's supposed to. HOWEVER the button is almost IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE when the browser uses a dark or black theme. PLEASE add a white variant so this extension becomes usable. This issue had already been reported in 2020 for its sister extension Stop: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stop/kkeehnmfddjhlojogndpeaklfhaokkbn/support . Meanwhile, here's an alternative: "My Reload Button", with a very visible, however even uglier, orange “>” as its button icon: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/my-reload-button/enljbahijigkmdlagadnkokcjgnkainm So far, I couldn't find any other simple reload/refresh extensions for Chrome/Chromium-based browsers.
- (2022-05-26) Сергей Друзь: I need reload for all tabs excluding the active tab. Can you add this feature? 🥴
- (2021-10-15) Tyler Durden: I think the reload icon should be bit bigger, maybe 20% bigger to look like chrome default reload button.
- (2021-08-08) Eddie Ortiz: Perfect for me, I am left handed and it is more easy for me have the reload button in the right, in the toolbar. This extension solves my little problem. Very thanks.
