- Rated 5 out of 5by BlueberryCoffee, 7 months agoIt's great, works just as intended. Only one issue; for some reason, at random, one streamer name is blanked out, but will show time watched.
A request would be to have a total timer at the top.Developer response
posted 3 months agoWait, what do you mean?
If you're referring to the drop-down menu thing in the Firefox toolbar, where you can delete your watch times, then I think an explanation is that I set there to be a 30 minute minimum watch time until a stream name shows up on that list. I did that to avoid having some junk names show up, given how I wrote the code.
If that's not the problem, then... I'm not sure.
Thanks for the review/comment, sorry for the late response -- I don't get any alert on reviews. - Rated 5 out of 5by Calvin, a year ago

posted 2 years agoIt counts up by minutes, not seconds. Does it not increment for you after over a minute?- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 15308453, 4 years agoThe sync feature is broken. I had 12 hours on desktop and 8 hours on laptop. It became 8 hours in both device after sync!

I think I fixed this in an update earlier this year and forgot to mention it. Here is the note from Feb 2022:
Fixed bug where time on one device could mis-overwrite time on another -- syncing should work properly now, give or take a few minutes.

Thanks for the rating and feedback!
Apparently Firefox's sync feature does not do what I thought it did. Sorry, that was careless of me :/
Looks like I'll have to get rid of the sync-related code and replace it with device-specific storage. That means in the future you'd just have 12 hr on desktop and 8 hr on laptop, but no way to link the two besides in your head. - Rated 5 out of 5by Fairkater, 5 years agoI really need the time reset option. Or a separate tab with statistics only for the last month to make it easier to decide which channel to subscribe to.
Update. Thanks. Still need a button to reset the time on all channels at once.Developer response

I opted to add in a time reset option. It is a feature that I kind of wanted myself, to clear up my table of channels. I hope it works well enough for your needs. - Rated 5 out of 5by aleksandr-96, 5 years ago2019.05.06
This is a great extension! Thank you for your work, everything works correctly.
But I would like to have a page where I can see all the streamers viewed and the duration of the viewing.

WOW, thank you so much for the update. That's exactly what I wanted. Simple, but effective and useful. Thank you, I appreciate your work!Developer response

A summary page has definitely crossed my mind. I never made one for a few reasons:
- I already have too many icons next to my address bar.
- I would need to make some design decisions like 'should the time be resettable?'
- I kinda suck as aesthetics. Luckily, the addon Mind the Time exists, so I could just rip that off (to a limited extent). You might like that extension if you like this one. I think it's great.
I've also toyed with the idea of removing the word "Watched:". Twitch seems to be shoving more and more crap into that header bar (what was wrong with the glowing red dot instead of LIVE?), and sometimes not everything fits.
**EDIT**
I went through with your suggestion. I hope you like the new and improved TwitchTime!
