Good replacement for Download Statusbar, thank you! I'll give you a fifth star if you can add more colors, font sizes, more options as asked by other reviewers! ;)

Great to find another thing I missed when changing over to Quantum yesterday. :-)
The only thing preventing me from giving it the full 5 stars is that it looks a bit big and clutzy, especially since the detail-information appear in a hover-window anyway...
But thumbs-up for the effort so far!

This on the way to being the most popular download manager out there. Developer seems to be listening to input. I'm not looking to manage files I download. Firefox has never been great in this area
. I would like to see the option to open downloads in specific applications. Not just open the files in default folder

Works really nice, much like Chrome's download bar.

Finally FF Quantum is getting better - thanks to new and useful addons like this!
Of course it could be better once Mozilla improves their web extension APIS.

Agradeço ao desenvolvedor pelo excelente trabalho! A versão 1.7.0 ficou muito boa, mas ainda sinto falta da opção de "Renomear" o arquivo baixado. Seria interessante também, se fosse possível, reduzir o espaço que a visualização do arquivo baixado ocupa na tela, ao posicionarmos o cursor do mouse sobre ele. Esse espaço é particularmente grande quando a URL de origem do arquivo é muito comprida. Talvez isso fosse possível suprimindo uma parte da URL e adicionando o símbolo de reticências (...), para indicar essa supressão.

Updated review for v1.70 (3rd Jan 2018):

Bar size is now much better and compact, some users may have preferred the option to set the size themselves but the updated default is new good

Last version (1.7.0) is very nice, I wish one could change the background color or make it less intense.
Thanks for your work, for me, this extension is indispensable.

Thank you for developing this, Download Status Bar was a great add-on in the old XUL/XPCOM standard that I used in old Firefox, and it's nice that we finally have a functional status bar in the new WebExtensions format.

Here are some of the things that need to be added (some have already been mentioned here):
-Download speed bandwidth, this was available in the old add-on
-Reduce bar height to how it was in the old add-on, it's way too big right now
-Polish the UI a bit more, it doesn't look like a particularly finished product
-Possible bug, the completion sound doesn't play

I hope to see this add-on grow and improve. Good luck on this project!

Firefox 57.0.2 x64

nice addon, but i have a large screen and have to enlarge some sites to be able to read the text and then the downloadbar enlarges also and take to much space

It's coming closer and closer to the original, big thank you to the developer for the frequent updates, you are the only one currently working on a download bar addon!

good addon but the size thru the download is too big.
If possible to add option to compact view

Good add-on, hopefully will be a little bit polished soon - colors, size, option to open files etc..

Rather good ! It should be possible to modify some settings: for ex.: color and height of the bar.

The addon is great and the only thing preventing me to give 5/5 is the size. Its little too big for my taste and if not for that it would be clear 5/5.

The bar is to high, covering up too much of the lower part of the site. Could you please reduce the size?
Also it would be awesome if a double-click onto the downloaded file would open the file without having to switch to the place where it has been saved.

its been a good experience so far, we are still expecting old features like colors and download speeds to be add. yet its a great addon. thanks for taking the time to develop a newer version!

Of course a real good download status bar.

Completion Sound doesn't work on my Firefox 57.0.2 x64.

A suggestion: please, reduce bar height.

The best replacement for "Download Manager (S3)" that I've found so far, first of all I'd like to thank the developer for his/her hard work doing this for free for all of us to enjoy! :)

It does need some polishing, so if you could consider my suggestions I would appreciate it:

1) As many have said, the bar is too thick right now. It gets even thicker when downloading many files at once. Also, it changes size when you zoom in our out in a tab. And when you change to another tab, the bar either disappears or changes size according to the zoom level of each tab.

Please fix this making the bar size smaller, not dependent on each tab's size, and visible in all tabs/browser.

2) I'd also like if you could add some more info, like file icons, download speed, percentage... And that you could choose what info to show.

3) Add an option to "retry" when a download fails.

4) Add auto-clear option.

5) Add option to change color. Maybe even to the Firefox theme you are using.

6) Sometimes a download does not appear on the download bar for some reason (but it does appear on Firefox download history). Looks like a bug.

Die Bar Leiste könnte von der Höhe her ein wenig kleiner sein. Ansonsten Top!

First thanks for the time spent to reply.

What i was thinking would be to change the color of the progress bar whith the download speed like "Dl<50ko/s RED; 50ko/s300ko/s BLUE".

4 stars since we can't change size of the bar nor the progress bar but +1 since last time because you have added autohide for specific extension.

Can you reduce the height of the status bar? I think it too big to see something on th website. For example, the messages sidebar of FACEBOOK. It's better to add download rate on the status bar.

good stuff!

"Great job and a lifesaver! Not to belabor suggestions others have made, but here are my top 3 requests:

1) Make bar thinner in a manner similar to the old Download Status Bar extension by only displaying a single line of text and using tooltips to offload supplemental info. While download is in progress show a broken file icon, download speed, time remaining, and percent complete (or have option for user to choose 3 datums to display). Notice that filename doesn't display during download. When download completes, just display the file icon + name. All other data (file size, location, etc) can be displayed in tooltip.

2) Auto-clear (or have option to do so) when choosing Show in Explorer. Once I have gone to the file and started to work with it, I no longer need it in the status bar and having to explicitly clear it is just wasted mouse clicks.

3) See about injecting the status bar on all tabs. I keep dozens of tabs open at any one time and cannot keep track of which downloads are where.

Five stars if you manage to implement these!"

till now a great Job!
