Review Summary
The "Typewriter" Chrome extension is appreciated for adding enjoyable typewriter sound effects that enhance typing on many websites, motivating users and providing a pleasant experience. However, it does not function on all sites (e.g., Google Docs, Chrome-related pages), and some users face audio conflicts where other sounds are muted. Early versions lacked volume controls and customization, though updates have addressed some issues. Overall, users find it easy to use and satisfying, but note limitations in compatibility and audio management.
