Unclap for Medium

Un-Clapping an article should be as simple as a click

Unclap 👏 a Medium article with a single click!
Using Unclap, you can easily undo your applause on any Medium article. All you need to do, is to simply click the cross icon that appears when you hover the clap button 😄
How do I Unclap on Medium ?One fine day, I was reading an article on Medium and I accidentally clicked the "Clap" instead of the "Bookmark" button. Huh, no big deal we can easily undo it, right ? Well not as simple as it sounds. I just hovered over the clap button to find the option to undo it, but there wasn't any!

Hey Product Hunters 👋 I built this Chrome extension because I was really missing that old unclap button of Medium. It was so cool to just hover over the clap button and undo any clap. Now you can easily restore that feature, and on top of that I have also added a new way to unclap. Hope you like it 😄

Sorry for not being clear. I meant that how it works behind the scenes. Is there some JavaScript function in Medium that you run out what?

@elias_lankinen Medium would never offer a straight forward JavaScript function to do this. So, I had to make my own function to perform it well. Anyways, you can install the plugin and check the source code itself 😉
