- (2024-09-13) Vitaly Zdanevich: Please add to Firefox store also.
- (2024-06-07) Guilherme Stockler Sattamini: New review of the new version 6.0.0 (Beta): The extension was updated and the new version works well and smoothly, as did the previous one. It’s simple, straightforward and stable. --//-- Previous review about older version: It does exactly what it proposes to do and it's been working fine since I downloaded it. However, there's one thing that was initially just a little bit annoying, but soon became really annoying: not being able to turn off the yellow highlighted text on the page. It highlights each term typed in the search bar, and if you're like me and input a lot of keywords, it easily becomes unpleasant to read. Please fix this minor detail, which I suppose is something simple, and it will deservedly earn the 5th star.
- (2023-07-06) Andrey Plakushiy: Excellent extension, but it stopped working. Linux Mint, Chrome v113.
- (2023-04-23) Adnan abdelhadi: I guess it works just fine, an interactive preview appears on the right, when hovering over a search result. Basically what I was looking for.
- (2023-04-01) Ding Dong: Its working ok but why no hotkey setup available?
- (2023-02-18) Bond Sun: what about clicking to exit current preview? what about add history with iframe? what abot add shortcut key to enable/disable preview? That would be super great! Thanks for your great work.
- (2023-01-16) Dan: USED USED to be good now its garbage.
- (2023-01-09) Jesper Hustad: Works. Please support Web Search Navigator. Something like: if user opens page in new tab (CTRL+click link) it opens the preview instead.

- (2022-10-05) Rex malmin: I won't work for me at all
- (2022-10-05) Stefan Penov: Seems to work with Google, but on DuckDuckGo it does absolutely nothing for me. I also don't see an option to set size of preview iframe and the default one won't fit everyone's preferences.
- (2022-08-13) Zeyad Shaban: If you got any issues please try to turn off the ad blocker

- (2022-06-12) MaTT Belis: It doenst work :/ 12.6.2022
- (2022-06-11) Genivieve Vasquez: It's not working anymore. Disappointing.
- (2021-11-12) Grace Li: May i know if there is a way I can disable the highlight function in the preview? it is quite distracting for me to read the preview, thanks.
- (2021-09-18) BIOS-Pherecydes: When it works, it works fairly well. However, it is incompatible with wikia sites, which will consistently exceed the frame. In addition, it attempts to load a preview instantly upon hovering over a link, which means that there it will both load webpages you don't want to view and will also result in a delay in clicking the actual link to opening any website fully until the preview has finished loading, which means the webpage loads twice. Both are in unacceptable data drains. If the preview panel could be resized or relocated manually, or a delay was added before the preview was loaded, I'd happily rate it higher. As is however, the drawbacks make it more trouble than it's worth to keep running full-time.
- (2021-06-21) late choco: No thank you
- (2021-06-21) anma miiya: A solid assessment of previously "expensive" extensions.
- (2021-06-21) -l -i -n: I think the current evaluation is a transcendental overestimation.
- (2021-02-01) Kaai: It's a great extension but it stopped working in google about 3 weeks ago, it still works in duckduckgo
- (2020-08-12) casper belier: Works nice in iframe mode. If this could also show the ad-results in preview, that would be nice. I don't have the paid version, but it would be nice if you could slide the search result to make the iframe screen bigger and if you could press a button to automatically go to the next search result in preview. Tabbing over an link does not work. Would recommend if you use search alot for simple question where you have to click on the search result to get the answer. for example stackoverflow. this helps me with cluttering my tab. Thank, please come back to update <3!
- (2020-07-10) memphis tennessee: it laggs
- (2020-02-03) Daniel Palacios: No funciona
- (2019-09-19) Вадим-Сергеевич Петров: Перестало работать. Не качайте.
- (2018-11-15) Francis “lilo621” Lapointe: Was good before, now I can't see any website for a while.
- (2018-09-28) taro sun: I liked it before,but now uninstall it.Because it cost too much.
- (2018-07-19) Thang Huynh Quang: I like it, it's very useful. But now i can not use it.
- (2018-02-15) Dean Roman: Can we get a setting to keep the close(X) button always visible in iframe?
- (2017-10-27) P A: why does it highlight everything so annoying!!
- (2017-09-01) Jonathan Krassic: si mostrara los archivos pdf seria perfecta, gran trabajo
- (2017-06-04) Huong Nguyen: Its not free
- (2017-05-09) Pietro Pizzi: iFrame back, 5 Stars again! And BTW. Nice Extention and I even would pay some bucks at a one-time-deal but 11€ EVERY year ... that's out of proportion.
- (2017-04-20) Faisal Alvi: there should be option to set default position/height/width of the popup window.
- (2017-03-31) Nantinee T.: iframe is good but not that useful when I cannot adjust my own width and height of frame...the embedded window (the old one) is much better
- (2017-03-27) Rafiki Ali: Of course, i loved it when it was free! I had less expectations, as well. Now, it still excels, yet little things annoy me which i am unclear will be resolved by my paying for it. Back burner.
- (2017-03-21) Artur Tamazian: превью в новом окне - очень не удобно. с радостью поставлю 5 если вернете как было или дадите возможность выбора (update: теперь превью работает отлично. ставлю 5)
- (2017-03-16) James Waters: This was a fantastic extension, but the change from an embedded window to a floating one is very annoying. The option to choose which mode to use would be great!
- (2017-03-13) Victor V: After update (preview shows in new window) the extension have become very annoying. I'm removing it.
- (2017-03-13) Andrey Raveman: В новом окне стало намного лучше. Было б подешевле - купил бы.
- (2017-03-06) Charanjeet Singh: A useful extension, no more free. I had been using it from last 1 year. Recently instead of preview the page would rather pop out in new window. Its bit annoying. I tried reinstalling but didn't worked.
- (2017-03-06) V M: What did you do.. first came those ridiculous handles one had to search for to get the page to open in a new tab.. Now there is this equally ridicoulus pop-out which forces the entire browser window to disapear and all one is left with is this popout and no browser on the desktop.. to add insult to injury, in the 'free' version it is impossible to integrate the pop-out into the web browser. and 14.99 a year.. For what exactly.. Email apps that have far more options .. that work, and they are free or donate.... there is an old expression ..that fits perfectly here.. If It Is Not Broken .. Do not try and fix It.. Go back to what you had.. Ask for Donations..or at the very least a one off price that guarantees all future updates are free for premium users.. Greed Kills..Absolute greed kills absolutely.. My advice to anyone who uses this extension 'delete now' use switch to firefox there are better preview options. And to the developer.. 14.99 a year.. laughable.. Don't quit your day job...
- (2017-03-06) Kirill Sidorov: Сегодня отключил ваше расширение, очень неудобной показалась функция открытия в новом окне: фокус уходит, чтобы перейти по ссылке приходится нажимать два раза (раз для возврата фокуса, второй для перехода). Пока не прочитал чейнджлог, думал это баг. Кроме фокуса подбешивает открытие окна на третьем слева мониторе, а браузер открыт на первом (у меня их несколько). Вообщем неюзабельно стало. А вот как раньше работало — пятёрочка звезд. Нужно что-то делать с фокусом и позиционированием
- (2017-02-23) John streij: Awesome for 5-10years. Hasn't worked for several months - just hangs on progress bar.
- (2017-02-21) Andriy G.: шикарний додаток не потрібно заходити на сайти, щоб побачити їх вміст. Рекомендую
- (2017-02-02) Al Lu: FINALLY FIXED!! THANK YOU!!!
- (2016-12-31) Юзер Чпурта: Пропали кнопки масштаба и перехода на сайт. Случайно обнаружил, что появляются при наведении мыши в левый верхний угол.
- (2016-12-26) Rio Wong: slow to wait to preview sites individually, unless prefetch
