Next Gen Image Accept Control is a Chrome extension designed for web developers and QA engineers who need to test image format support on their websites. This tool allows users to control the Accept headers for image requests, facilitating the testing of WebP and AVIF image formats alongside legacy formats like PNG, JPEG, and GIF. With its user-friendly interface, users can easily switch between different modes to simulate various browser capabilities, ensuring comprehensive testing of image delivery and fallback mechanisms.

The extension offers four distinct modes: 'No WebP/AVIF Support' for legacy browsers, 'WebP Only' to prioritize WebP images, 'AVIF Only' for AVIF format, and an 'OFF' mode that reflects the default behavior of the browser. By simply clicking the extension icon, users can select their desired mode, and the changes take effect instantly on new image requests. This functionality is particularly useful for developers who want to ensure their sites deliver images correctly across a range of browsers.
