[Feature request] Indication of status.

[54m4d]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Hi!

When the toggle Extension is on is turned off, it can be challenging to determine whether the extension is actually on or off without clicking and checking the pop-up. This is because there is no indication outside the pop-up.

To improve the user experience, I suggest modifying the extension icon to transition from red to a dark or gray color, effectively "turning off its light" when the Extension is on toggle is switched off. This visual change would clearly indicate that the extension is inactive without requiring users to access the pop-up to verify its status.

I think implementing this small adjustment will greatly enhance the overall user experience.

I look forward to your response.

Is it a change to the extension's functionality or to the pop-up settings page?

Extension's functionality

If the latter, please propose a new design on Figma or describe it as detailed as possible

Let me know if this works for you: youtube-auto-hd-fps-1.7.11.zip

Does it mean that it works?

Sorry, i was writing the comment then i got a call and had to go out.

The functionality works smoothly, however, it is important to remember to reload the page after toggling on/off for the changes to take effect. Without reloading, no action will occur.

Not sure if it's a good idea to add a small reminder telling the user to reload the page each time the toggle is switched?

[avi12]

No need to reload at all When you toggle on the extension using the switch, it will change the video quality immediately, without any reload

[54m4d]

What if you toggle it off and click another video in the same page, does the quality change to auto without reloading?

[avi12]

Yes

That's not what happened in my test, but let me try it again

[avi12]

WAit you're right, just tested and it applied the quality change anyway Lemme look into it

[54m4d]

Yep, i tried it again and it doesn't change, we have to reload the page, but there's nothing wrong with reloading the page as long as we get a small reminder about doing it, otherwise we will be wondering why we still have that 1080p when the extension is already toggled off 😁

[avi12]

My goal is to deliver a smooth user experience :) I will continue debugging and upload here an updated version to let you test it out 😁

[54m4d]

Amazing :)

This one seems to be working perfectly, looks like it's ready to be pushed to CWS :)
