About this extension
No Loading Icon: Block or reduce a Spinner
Block, hide, delete, remove, erase, or reduce a loading icon, such as a spinner, to see no waiting animation.

We plan to improve the accuracy going forward.

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.

For use when focus is required or a comfortable browsing experience is desired.
For example:
•When loading icons distract you during advanced research, software development, or delicate tasks.

•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.

•For those who want to experience a legacy browser environment, reminiscent of the classic hourglass.

A Loading icon blocker blocks a loading icon, including a spinner, some progress indicator, busy cursor, working cursor, loading image/icon/animation/video/movie/circle/bar/status bar that does not show progress/time image/display/material, load element, wait rotation, spinning around and around, Round and round, loader icon, progress bar, waiting rotate, ring cursor, spinning icons, animated moving skeleton screen, and the like.
