My Top Seven Best Google Chrome Extensions

Before we dive into ( my top seven best google chrome extensions) we need to understand what google chrome extension is.

Extensions are small software programs that customize the browsing experience. They enable users to tailor Chrome functionality and behaviour to individual needs or preferences. They are built on web technologies such as HTML, JavaScript, and CSS.

An extension must fulfil a single purpose that is narrowly defined and easy to understand. A single extension can include multiple components and a range of functionality, as long as everything contributes towards a common purpose.

A screenshot of an extension’s icon in the browser barUser interfaces should be minimal and have intent. They can range from a simple icon, such as the Google Mail Checker extension shown on the right, to overriding an entire page.

Extension files are zipped into a single .crx package that the user downloads and installs. This means extensions do not depend on content from the web, unlike ordinary web apps.

Extensions are distributed through the Chrome Developer Dashboard and published to the Chrome Web Store. For more information, see the store developer documentation.

Tons of chrome themes are on the google chrome extension, I also installed some which are lovely but I rather stay with my wallpaper because am already addicted to the chrome default theme, it’s just easy for me. Below is a chrome theme from one of my favourite games I love so much, it is called PUBG.

5. Google DOCS Editor

google docs extension

Google Docs is popularly used, many people are already addicted to Microsoft word, but this is another extension you should try out. This extension allows you to type down documents, it is also very good when you have Grammarly extension on your chrome browser. It helps you write better, I sometimes use this extension to write down my article before copying it to 9ja Tide.

What I don’t like about the Google DOCS extension is that you must be online to document.

4. light Shot

light shot extension

This is another chrome extension I love so much. Lightshot allows you to take screenshots and store them on their server with a valid URL to enable you or anyone else to access the picture. This is a good way to save your space, and data to make work faster. For example, if you want to send a screenshot you took from your computer to someone else online all you need to do is just click on the light shot, screenshot,  and send the link to the person.

Also, for people who work as a freelancer, like Picoworkers, this one is important. Another good part about the light shot is the ability to crop a screenshot before sending it. It also has extra features like displaying arrows, drawing lines on the shot taken, and also saving it to your drive or sharing.

3. Middle Monkey

middle monkey extension

This is a chrome extension that allows you to download any video from a website. It also lets you download videos directly from youtube. No need to copy and paste the URL like other websites.

Middle monkey also allows single click downloads for all videos on the page you are viewing. which means you can now download all videos on a page with just a single click. I do make use of middle monkey a lot because I prefer to download youtube videos than just stream them.

The good part I love about this extension is the options of video quality. This means you are in control of the type of video format you want to download, video quality or format including mp4 720 HD, mp4 360, HD/mp3 Televzr, and so on, depending on the type of video and video quality uploaded.

This is very useful when you want to download a movie or tutorial from youtube. Instead of using a watch later on youtube which will later need a data connection if you are offline for a long time.

Middle monkey makes youtube videos available for offline usage and also makes it possible to share videos with friends and love ones offline.

2. Grammarly Extension

grammarly

I don’t know the word to use, I really love this extension, this extension is used to correct blunders and errors in an article or a text.

Sometimes I do use this extension a lot it appears to be of my number 2 most loved extensions because most times I have limited time to write an article, I just type as fast I could, so as to meet up with other things.

I make use of Google Docs or notepad, after I am through I copy them to 9ja Tide and then boom it brings out a red line beneath the wrong word with correction on how to fix them, which is just amazing.

Grammarly is not like Microsoft word just displays a red line for errors, Grammarly checks the sentence and brings out a suitable word for that particular error word. It also has this emoji which indicates how your write-up sounds like, it also has an auto capital letters correction like using a lower case on someone’s name, it autocorrects that.

Grammarly is also good for people who work in the office, students, and bloggers. It is a must-have extension.

Also, you need to get this at the back of your mind Grammarly is not 100% correct.
