Gemini Usage Bar

Never get hit by surprise usage limits again!

Gemini Usage Bar is an Open-Source lightweight, productivity extension that displays your remaining Gemini usage limits in real-time, directly inside your chat interface. No more navigating away to check your status or getting blocked mid-conversation.

Designed to feel like a native feature, it embeds a sleek, glassmorphic pill next to your top menu that matches Google Gemini's aesthetic perfectly.

🌟 Key Features:

🔄 Real-Time Auto-Refresh: The extension monitors the active prompt stream and automatically updates your usage percentage the exact second Gemini finishes generating a response.

📈 Detailed Limits Dropdown: Click the pill to open a clean dropdown panel showing detailed progress bars for both your Current Limit and your Weekly Limit, along with their exact reset times.

⚡ Manual Refresh: Fetch your current limits on demand with an interactive refresh button in the dropdown header, complete with loading spin animations.

↔️ Dynamic Sidebar Alignment: The pill is layout-aware. When you expand or collapse Gemini's sidebar, the bar slides smoothly alongside it to prevent overlapping any text or logos.

⌨️ Quick Toggle Command: Easily hide the bar using the keyboard shortcut Alt + U (or Option + U on Mac). When hidden, a small, subtle eye icon floats in the bottom-right corner for quick recovery.

🌓 Automatic Theme Matching: Adapts natively to Gemini's Dark and Light modes using your browser's active CSS styling.

🔑 Auth Warning: Displays a helpful notice if your session expires, with a direct link to log back in.

🔒 Privacy & Security:

Your data stays yours. Gemini Usage Bar is built with security first:
Runs entirely in your browser locally.
Does not track, collect, or store any personal data.
Does not communicate with external servers—it only accesses the official same-origin page (gemini.google.com/usage) to fetch details.

⌨️ Shortcuts:
Toggle Visibility: Press Alt + U (Mac: Option + U) at any time to hide or show the usage bar.
