Reviews from real users
Nyan Progress Bar holds a 4.7-star average across 58 reviews on the Chrome Web Store. The reviews below are a mix β the freshest feedback on the most recently shipped release at the top, followed by every review we have collected since the very first version. Nothing is curated or filtered. Negative reviews stay visible because we learn more from them than from anything else.
If you're considering installing the extension, this page is the most honest picture of the product we can give you. If you already use it and would like to leave a public review, the Chrome Web Store is the most useful place β search results and ranking on the store are heavily influenced by recent ratings, and a single one-line rating from you is the single best way to help the project reach other YouTube users.

What users mention most
Across hundreds of reviews and bug reports, the same three threads come up over and over.
Privacy and "no tracking"
By far the most common positive comment is some version of "it does one thing and doesn't try to track me." Users notice that the extension does not ask for unnecessary permissions, does not send anything to a server, and has no account or sign-in. For many people this is the deciding factor over other YouTube extensions.
Polish on the YouTube player
Users frequently mention how well-tuned the cats are to the YouTube scrubber. Each built-in cat has a hand-set default height and top offset, so the overlay sits cleanly on the player without anyone touching the sliders. This is the kind of detail that takes a long time to get right and is the part of the extension we are proudest of.
Custom GIF uploads
The upload tile is the feature most often called out in five-star reviews. Users upload their channel mascots, community emotes, their own pets, pixel art they have made, or random GIFs from the internet β and seeing those animations as the YouTube scrubber turns out to be a much bigger payoff than the description suggests.

βThis is better than the old Nyan Cat progress bar I had. This one has the rainbows unlike the other one. If the other Nyan Cat progress bar have not ended support on Chrome, I would have never seen this masterpiece. Awesome app!β
