  • Custom Chrome Zoom Extension with Global Zoom Control for Small Screen

    This Chrome Zoom Extension allows users to set a global zoom percentage that automatically applies to all supported websites. Unlike default Chrome zoom, this extension remembers your preferred zoom level and reapplies it whenever you open or refresh a tab.

     

    What This Extension Does

     

    This extension provides a simple popup interface where users can:

    Enter a custom zoom percentage

    Apply zoom instantly to the active tab

    Automatically apply the same zoom level to all newly loaded tabs

    Save the zoom level using Chrome Sync Storage

    The zoom setting is global, meaning it stays consistent across tabs and browser sessions.

     

    Popup Interface Overview

     
    The popup UI is clean and lightweight:

    A number input for zoom percentage

    Minimum zoom: 25%

    Maximum zoom: 100%

    Default value: 70.35%

    An Apply button to activate the zoom

    This design keeps the extension fast and easy to use.

     

    How the Zoom Logic Works

     
    1. Saving Zoom Preference

    When the user clicks Apply, the extension:

    Converts the percentage into Chrome’s zoom format

    Saves the value using chrome.storage.sync

    Applies zoom instantly to the active tab

    This ensures the zoom preference is remembered across browser restarts.

    2. Applying Zoom Automatically

    The background script listens for tab updates. When a page finishes loading:

    It checks whether the URL is valid

    System pages like chrome://, edge://, and about: are ignored

    The saved zoom level is automatically applied

    This creates a seamless browsing experience without manual adjustments.

    Smart URL Filtering

    To prevent errors, the extension safely skips restricted pages such as:

    chrome://

    edge://
