SynQ for Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music, more

Hey there! I've fixed this issue. The problem is that when you first install the extension, the scripts to collect information from the YTM page haven't run yet and you need to refresh the page. Now, the popup will tell you when a refresh is needed and give you a button to refresh them.

Hey there, thanks for the feedback. I definitely understand your concern - hopefully this explanation can help. Unfortunately, Chrome's messaging about permissions is quite frustrating and they give us developers very little control over it. "Read your browsing history" - This is not actually something SynQ cares about nor does anything with, but because we require the "tabs" permission to be able to sync the music tabs to the mini player, that permission technically would allow the extension the ability to see your browsing history as that falls under the "tabs" permission. As such, Chrome warns you that SynQ technically has the ability to do that if it wanted to, and there's no way for us as the developers to specify further that we don't actually need or use that capability. "Display notifications" - This is part of an optional feature of SynQ which you can disable, but again because it technically can do that, it shows as a required permission. "Read and change all your data on all websites" - This is a tough one. You're right that SynQ does not currently actually need to be able to do this. However, we've been burned before by adding new permissions as it disables the extension for every existing user, causing mass uninstalls. Since we planned to add support for additional music services, we decided to pre-empt it by requesting full access now. Note that all of this code is open source for anyone to verify, and they can build it and check that it is in fact the same as the code you see in your browser: https://github.com/SynQApp/Extension

Hey Dan, given yours and the other comment about this same issue below, I think what I might do is try to ask for permissions for a bunch of services we intend to support but do not yet have implemented (i.e. SoundCloud, YouTube (standard), SiriusFM, etc). That way we can still get the benefit of not disabling the extension every time we add support while also not asking you to give us such wide-ranging permissions. In the meantime, we have open-sourced SynQ, meaning you and anyone else can see the code that makes SynQ work and verify it does not do anything nefarious: https://github.com/SynQApp/Extension
