Overview

Plays sounds when starting or finishing navigation or a download, when typing on a website, or when opening or closing a tab.

Do you remember the classic sounds of the old Internet Explorer when clicking, when a page finished loading, or when a download completed? This extension brings those sounds back and adds other events, such as when typing in a text field or opening and closing a tab. In the options window, you can activate, deactivate, and customize the sounds to your liking. 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀: v 2.1 · Added the options page, where you can enable or disable events and customize sounds. · Default setting changed to disabled for keypress sound · Added events for opening and closing tabs. v 2.0 · Mandatory update to Manifest 3.0 (which is more restrictive with sound playback). · Added the event for typing in a text field. 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞: Information about automatic sound playback: Due to Chrome's policies, extensions that attempt to play sound automatically may not work properly. The most effective solution I've found is to close all Chrome instances and start the browser with this setting: chrome.exe --autoplay-policy=no-user-gesture-required ...or if you use Edge: msedge.exe --autoplay-policy=no-user-gesture-required This allows any page, including this extension, to play sounds without user interaction. However, keep in mind that this setting removes restrictions for all websites, which may result in unexpected behavior on sites with unwanted automatic sound. For more details, check Chrome's official documentation: https://developer.chrome.com/blog/autoplay#developer_switches It’s also important to note that sound cards, after a period of inactivity, often enter power-saving mode. Since the sounds in this extension are very short, they may not be heard immediately at first. 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲!! I develop it in my free time and without ads. If you like it and want to see further improvements, a donation is the best way to support it. Thank you! https://paypal.me/navigationalsounds
