Update on the Humble Bundle extension I posted a while back: version 1.0 is now available! A couple of months ago I posted here about a Chrome extension I'd been working on to help identify books, comics, and games I'd already purchased when browsing Humble bundles. I got a lot of great feedback from people here, and I've continued working on it since then. What started as a relatively simple ownership checker has grown into something quite a bit more capable. I've now released Humble Library 1.0, and I wanted to share some of the bigger additions since my original post: - Searchable purchase library: You can now browse, search, and filter your entire imported Humble purchase library. It also tracks how many times you've purchased a particular product and shows exactly which bundles it came from. I found this particularly interesting when looking back through years of purchases and discovering just how many times I'd bought some of the same things. - Unrevealed key reminders: If you've purchased bundles containing game or software keys you haven't revealed yet, the extension can help you keep track of them and remind you to check them, particularly when expiration dates are involved. It doesn't need to read or store the actual keys. - Software bundle support: In addition to books, comics, and games, the extension now supports Humble's software bundles. - Improved ownership matching: I've spent quite a bit of effort improving how it handles different editions, collections, volumes, and similarly named products. It tries to distinguish definite matches from possible matches rather than incorrectly marking things as owned. - Cross-store ownership checking: This is probably the biggest expansion of the project. I built a separate extension called Galactic Library that can combine your digital collections from other services, allowing Humble Library to help identify products you may already own outside Humble. That last feature ended up turning into two additional projects: Fanatical Library is a companion extension that does something similar for Fanatical bundles, including Pick & Mix offers. Galactic Library is a broader digital library organizer that can import collections from Steam, GOG, Epic, Kindle, Audible, and a number of other services. It also includes features for tracking comics, collected editions, and manga volumes. All three extensions are now free, open source, and available on the Chrome Web Store. I've installed and tested the published versions myself. Firefox versions have also been submitted and are awaiting Mozilla's review. As before, the extensions are designed to keep your library information locally in your browser. There's no cloud library, no account to create, and no analytics or advertising. Humble Library works perfectly well on its own; the other extensions are optional.

This has turned into a much bigger side project than I originally intended, but it's been fun to build. I'd love to hear what people think, particularly if you encounter incorrect ownership matches or have ideas for improving it further. Also, I don't have that much in the way of software purchases, so the testing of that was somewhat limited. UPDATE — Firefox versions are now available! All three extensions have now been approved and published on Firefox Add-ons (AMO), so they're available for both Chrome and Firefox. - Humble Library (Firefox): addons.mozilla.org - Fanatical Library (Firefox): addons.mozilla.org - Galactic Library (Firefox): addons.mozilla.org Let me know what you think.
