Aria2 Indicator is a Chrome extension designed to enhance the download management experience by providing a minimalist interface for monitoring Aria2 download tasks. This tool focuses on essential functionalities, allowing users to view the number of active downloads or seeding tasks directly on the browser icon. It facilitates easy access to current task information through a dedicated popup page.

In addition to displaying task details, the extension offers the ability to cancel ongoing downloads and includes a convenient "Send to Aria2" option in the right-click menu for quick link additions. However, it is important to note that the extension does not intercept browser download tasks and requires Aria2 to be running on the user's computer for full functionality.
