posted 6 years agoHow can it be glitched? Would be very grateful for a more detailed bug report (either via support site or in the github repo).

- Rated 4 out of 5by electron, 2 years agoThe latest versions of Firefox on windows have started supporting system notifications. This extension was a must have for me before that. Thanks for creating it!

- Rated 4 out of 5by Julian, 2 years agoThe extension is super useful! I cannot complain about it, except for one little issue:
The notification sound works for me that I got a new case to work on, ONLY if I am on Firefox and on an open case. If I am actively on another program or another Mozilla website, it won't work.
If anyone reads this and there's a way to fix it, I'd be super thankful :) - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14562580, 2 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by rhaase, 2 years agoThis works for Microsoft teams!
Seeing as it cannot technically work for some others, I cannot give it five stars. Overall I'm happy with it as I only care about teams. - Rated 1 out of 5by Dr. Ali, 3 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16998835, 3 years agoI read a year old review that Twitter notifications do not work from the type of worker notification it presents. It would be a great tool if this were fixed.
- Rated 4 out of 5by circcc, 4 years agoPlease make tab context menu hide option.
I only use the download finish sound feature. So I want to hide the tab context menu that I don't need. - Rated 5 out of 5by Zach H., 4 years agoSimple, easy to use, works as expected. I needed this for OpenPhone, a VoIP app I use for work. The notification options in OP are nonexistent so this filled the gap for me.

posted 4 years agoNotifications generated by service workers don't work. This is for sure what youtube uses, since you also get notifications from youtube when the tab is not open. Sadly there is no way for the extension to intercept these notifications. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15291916, 4 years agoInstant failure, as soon as I installed it. The page to test the add-on which appeared shortly after installation played no sound when the button was clicked, and on attempting to try the default sound, or any other selected sound, in the add-on's preferences page, I'm greeted with an error message on a red background, instead of sound. "The play method is not allowed by the user agent or the platform in the current context, possibly because the user denied permission." It complains it doesn't have permission, but it won't ask for it!

posted 4 years agoThanks for this - what is essentially a bug report - I was not aware that I had issues with not having the proper playback permissions. I thought that extensions were made exempt when they were initially introduced. Since the extension can't ask for permission like a webpage can. However, I'm sadly unable to reproduce the exact issue with the latest Firefox version (78.0.1). For me the default sound doesn't work, but selecting a custom sound works. Sadly playing sounds from an extension is a bit cumbersome, and as many reviews show, a bit error prone - however the errors depend a lot on OS, Firefox version, and other system variables that I haven't fully narrowed down. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13968023, 5 years agoNot sure why people have given mediocre rating. This addon works exactly as intended. Allows customization of notification sound as well as muting the notifications for desired websites.

posted 5 years agothe Facebook and Twitter notifications likely come from Service Workers, which also work when the tab is not open. As described in the description, it is sadly impossible to play a sound for those (in a generic way). - Rated 5 out of 5by أشرف صبري, 5 years ago
