What is PopupSound?
PopupSound is an Edge add-on developed to enhance your online interaction with sounds. Full of fun, it plays a unique 'click' sound when links are clicked, a triumphant 'trumpet' sound upon completed downloads, and a gentle 'plonk' for any downloading errors. It's designed to make the internet more than a visual experience, bonding the user with an audible response to their actions.

Summary
Analyze keywords

A delightful tool for people who love the joy of sounds to their ears.

When clicking on links that navigate to another page, a quiet "click" sound will be played.

When after a file has finished downloading, a "trumpet" sound pops through the speakers.

When a file which is downloading encounters an error, a "plonk" sound blissfully nudges awake the user.

Why use PopupSound?

The internet is a very bland place where only our visual sense get tickled. Our interactions with the Internet is strangely quiet in a world where all 5 senses usually get bombarded with stimulation.

This extension brings that exuberating sensation back to the Internet by having an audible reaction to our actions; sort of like the in-your-face popups in popup books.

It's so interesting, I like it!

On Edge ~88, no popup sound when you have Settings - Site permissions - Media autoplay = Block. Works fine on Edge 89!

Thank you for this extension, the only one available for Edge as far as I know. It is an invaluable tool for our blind community. I was using the Sound On Click extension once available for Chrome but that's no longer available online. However, what I liked about it is that it could play sounds even if the browser was opening any page when retrieving its subpages (similarly as Internet Explorer did). I have nothing against the sound you use but the Sound On Click extension was playing the sound people were used to from Internet Explorer and can hear in Windows when navigating folders. Just an idea for improvement. You can write to me if you want to discuss these or other possible improvements to this extension, I will be more than happy to see it improving.
