very useful

Helpful one but it doesnt make the tab black, it makes negative colour
David Lin
Works great, exactly what I needed to keep a web-based security camera monitoring portal on top. Occasionally requires a restart, and usually needs resetting when my computer wakes up from sleep, but not a big issue.
cool fire ninja
very useful for art related reference stuff
Andrés Hernández

Rizki Ananda

SA stuff53
Does what it says.
Marius Bongarts
Just came across this — didn’t realize I needed it, but now I definitely wouldn’t want to be without it. Super helpful and really well designed.
Darko Buba
I'll give it 10 times 5 stars if someone helps me with muting a floating window. I tried everything under the sun - muting site in Chrome, muting sound on application's web permission settings but damn thing keeps playing sound :D
Catherine Howe
Fantastic extension. Does just what I want... lets me keep a window on top. Simple and great.
Ken Mori
Awesome extension. Super simple. Does exactly what it says it will do ... keeps a window always on top. Perfect for watching status in a window... and i use it to keep GPT always visible.

Zakaria noviansyah

TheViewers PeeYew
Useless. Does not work as advertised.

Rafif Priya I
it helped sm and makes it easier for references to do digital drawings! ^_^
Dania Batiste
Exactly what I needed to help me film a Youtube video by having my bulletpoints right on top while I screenshared - without it being part of the tutorial. I was able to film so much more efficiently and with less retakes. Thank you!
Kareem Khan
Works great with Twitch.
John Smith

Very good extension, thanks to the developer! There is a small issue I encounter however: when I hover over the floating tab, it moves and extends a bit.
Mandy Lu
Genius design! Thank you!
Sara

Dũng Nguyễn Huy
The exact extension what I need to play audios when we practice languages www.tienganhtinhgon.com
Salima Hafurova
I've never left a google chrome store review but this is exactly the kind of feature I was searching for in my Mac. This is great for ALL university and college students because you can have PDF doc of your textbook open, and if you don't understand a passage you can quickly copy and paste, to search the subject you are struggling to get the concept of. This is about to improve my GPA by a longshot, some textbooks use such technical jargon I don't understand what is even being discussed. I love that when I click a document or open another tab the window remains open as a waiting assistant ready to help you with open arms. Thank you so much for the developer! Thank you, thank you!
