The Google Chrome browser entered the internet scene at the end of 2008. Nevertheless, today it’s the most popular web browser in the world. One of the reasons for its popularity is the plethora of interesting extensions available for Google Chrome.
Extensions are small software modules that help you use the browser even more effectively. AdmiGram.com will tell you about the five simplest yet incredibly useful ones.
5 most useful extensions for Google Chrome
AdBlock
Ads are what allow most Internet resources to exist and operate in the World Wide Web. But despite all attempts to make them useful, in most cases, ads are disruptive and distracting. They’re flashy, loud, annoying, and infuriating. AdBlock solves this problem by disabling them altogether. However, you can allow AdBlock to work where you deem it necessary and appropriate.
Lightshot (screenshot tool)
Screenshots are the simplest and quickest way to illustrate points or convey useful or important information to someone. Lightshot is one of the simplest, fastest, and most functional extensions for this purpose. It’s straightforward. With just one click, you can save a screenshot anywhere, share it with anyone, send it for printing, or save it to cloud storage.
Dark Reader
Our screens are getting brighter every year. Whether this is good or bad is debatable. But to read anything from the screen when your eyes aren’t ‘burning out’ – that’s undoubtedly an axiom. Dark Reader is the perfect extension to reduce eye strain. With it, you can not only enable a dark theme for any website but also customize it (brightness, contrast, fonts) to your liking.
Floating player
A handy extension that allows you to watch videos from YouTube and other sources in a pop-up window that will appear above any open tab. It’s the perfect solution for those who watch webinars and live streams and fear missing out on something important while doing something else. The pop-up window with the video can be placed anywhere on the screen.
Web Activity Time Tracker
Still don’t know why time flies so quickly on the internet? This extension will help you answer that question. It will visually show you where you spend most of your time while browsing the internet. By analyzing your statistics for at least a week, you can understand what exactly is eating up your time online.
