feature suggestion: annotate pinyin automatically (on every page) #1

This tool is pretty good and well-designed, but I had to click "annotate" button manually every time I refresh/change URL to see those pinyins, which might be a little bit annoying for learners. So it would be more comfy to use if there was a feature that annotates pinyin automatically.

Thanks for your feedback, I'll look into adding an auto-annotate option that will cease with manual intervention.

Before that, you could try using the keyboard shortcut Alt + Shift + P (or Option + Shift + P on macOS) to toggle the annotation, it might be easier than clicking the Annotate button.

I would find the auto-annotate option extremely useful, as I believe this would be the only change necessary to make this addon function using the beta addon support in the Firefox Beta android app. I am currently using this addon in combination with Nuenki as a language learning tool, and it has been very useful thus far on desktop.
