About this extension
  • Blocks loading circles and other loading icons on various web pages -

We will continue improving detection accuracy.

Block(Hide) or reduce a loading Spinner (round and round).

Other loading icons that will be blocked include, for example, some indicator bars and progress bars that unnecessarily move back and forth across the top of the screen without indicating the time, and semi-transparent, animated displays that appear before text fields are shown.
  1. Developer's vision:
    We think for some users, these visual elements can make it difficult to concentrate on online tasks, potentially leading to wasted time, or barriers or concerns in daily life, work, and access to information.

Our goal is to support a more focused and comfortable browsing experience, while contributing to fairer access to web services and improvements in universal design.
  1. For use when focus is required or a comfortable browsing experience is desired.
    For example:
    •When loading icons distract you during advanced research and development, or delicate tasks

•When you want to concentrate and work efficiently

•Designed to improve Universal Design. For those who find websites psychologically difficult to access due to spinning indicators or skeleton screens.

•When you want to watch videos on streaming sites or recommended feeds without seeing loading icons

•For those who prefer a neat, clean, and natural internet environment

•I want to see a sophisticated, legacy browser environment, like the old hourglass
