Description from store
Problem: Some websites have a lot of junk on them.
✔ boom! lets you declutter busy pages and make them readable again.
Problem: Some websites won't let you use them without creating an account.
✔ boom! lets you knock down annoying paywalls and use websites like Pinterest or Groupon without signing up.
Problem: Some websites show creepy advertisements.
✔ boom! lets you delete them to your heart's content.
Problem: Some websites have terrible typography.
✔ Just shift-click a text element while boom! is active to improve its readability.
Usage:
Click the bomb icon. The fuse should light. At this point, you can:
- Click elements to delete them.
- Hold shift and click text elements to make them more readable.
Hitting escape or clicking the bomb icon again defuses the extension.
You can toggle boom! with a hotkey by going to Tools -> Extensions and clicking the "Keyboard shortcuts" link at the bottom.

- (2022-05-23) Hà Lê: Really?
- (2022-01-20) Hayley Griffith: Works great! I would love an auto mode, or settings so the text is more readable for me (like font, colour and line spacing) because some websites make it SO hard! But as a decluttering app, it works really well.

- (2019-02-25) Joshua Stratford: good
- (2017-11-22) Jim Ruby: Nice. Just follow the directions and it does a good job - click the icon to light the fuse and move the mouse over the web page to find and hide various elements.
- (2017-05-24) Naboon Riddhiraksa: It can be a good tool for some websites.. tho most silly websites made their divs too busy that I had to bomb too many elements.. manually.
- (2017-05-11) James Austin: Does nothing. Gets rid of nothing. Annoying stuff is still there.
- (2017-03-29) Jonathan Mesnard: Allows you to decide exactly which elements of a page you want to be presented with - great extension.
- (2017-03-15) Corrodias: Simple. Beautiful. Outlines the element that's going to be removed on mouseover. Only active when you click the button to activate it. It's just what I wanted.
- (2017-03-12) Bryan Dady: Doesn't change cluttered page I wanted to simplify, at all.
- (2017-02-16) Ailon Meir: Great, but you need to add an undo Button
- (2016-12-08) Jack Bicer: Doesn't do anything.
- (2016-06-21) Luke Hamburg: Pretty much perfect! Thank you for writing this. Any chance you'd consider adding a context-menu option as well?
