What’s New in Version 3.0
After several years, I finally found the time to update this extension. Here is what’s new (TL;DR):
- Manifest 3 support
- Added White Icon option
- Added default shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+K)
The longer version of the news:
- I rewrote the whole code to support the so called “Manifest 3” format. This was mandatory change, since Google is planning to remove all older (Manifest 2) extensions from the Chrome Web Store in the coming months. I tested a lot and I believe all functionality was preserved, but if you find a bug after the update — please, drop me a line at [email protected] and let me know
- Added default keyboard shortcut for the cleaner. If you did not asswign different one (and other extension did not took it) — the cleaner should be working from keyboard now. For windows and linux, it is Control + Shift + K; for Mac OS it is Cmd + Shift + K; I used this because it comes handy to me (3 keys close to each other) still hard to press by accident (I don’t want to casually clear my history while working)
- The third change is that the options now include “white icon”. That’s entirely per user request
Hope you’ll find the new version useful as before. I’ll try to update it again in the next months with more options.
Thanks and All the Best!
