Adil Asgher 2024-06-27: Love this extension so much! It's such a treat as a cinephile to look up who's in a scene. I will say though that it's not been working as of late, but I hope that work can continue in the extension.
Zerafina 2023-11-03: It was amazing... Unfortunately it stopped working on Chrome around Apr 2022 Netflix's "Report A Problem" Flag is placed exactly over the Lens Button, hiding it completely - and even blocking the flag with an ad blocker doesn't help - it seems to block both or nothing at all :(
Alberto C. 2023-07-11: It's not working right now :(

Robert Champagne 2022-12-17: Was good and I used it constantly. Stopped working about 2 months ago. I'm on Chrome (obviously) and it doesn't show on Netflix or Disney+ anymore.

J “TheSHEEEP” D 2022-08-05: Unfortunately doesn't work (any more) Using Chrome Version 104.0.5112.79 (Official Build) (64-bit). While watching a movie on Netflix, no Lens text appears anymore that could be clicked on.

Emma Tolkin 2021-09-15: This is FANTASTIC. I thought Amazon's x-ray feature was good until I tried Lens. More features, cleaner UI, all around excellent. I love the attention to detail (for example, the trivia panel hides spoilers until you click to reveal). 10/10!!!

Serge Kuznetsov 2021-09-09: I'm amazed something like this wasn't made sooner considering how simple but game changing it is. I'm a chronic imdb scanner, so being able to have the cast without googling it is great.

Jeffrey Meyer 2021-08-27: Amazing extension. Works like a charm, and gives you a great experience!! I also installed it in Opera using the "Install Chrome Extensions" extension from the Opera Add-ons. It still works like a charm.

Molly Levitt 2021-04-02: This is amazing! I've been using it for a few weeks now and I haven't had any problems, and it loads super quickly and doesn't slow down Netflix at all, which was what I was worried about when downloading this. When you click on an actor you can see other stuff they've been in too. I'm a compulsive Googler when I watch shows and movies, so this makes my experience so much better.
