The Chrome Web Store supports canceling a pending review. Use this, for example, if
you've discovered a bug or typo in your extension after submitting it for
review. Instead of waiting for the review to finish, cancel the review and
re-submit a new version of your extension.
How to cancel a review?
After submitting an extension, cancel the review by clicking ? View
more menu options on the Store listing page. Select Cancel review. The Cancel review option will only be displayed
while your extension's status is Pending review. The current status is displayed below the extension title.
Select "Cancel review" on the *Store listing* page to cancel a pending review.
A confirmation dialog appears when you request to cancel a review. Once you click the Cancel review button to confirm, the submission will be canceled and returned to a draft state.
Confirm the cancellation by selecting "Cancel review" in the confirmation dialog.
