Works perfectly.
Just what I've been looking for! It replaced another Chrome magnifying extension (no longer supported), and this does the job!
Magnifies by lowering the resolution so the usefulness is limited. Requests permissions it doesn't need for such limited functionality. Will disappear with any click so it is quite efemere.
works like a charm, when I tried to zoom in on a document it got fuzzy but this was perfectly clear👍
good for eyes sRoz (Edit): VERY VERY GOOD FOR EYES TEAM YRF'9 AND TISK0
Very straight to the point, isn't buggy at all, and requires minimum to no memory at all. Amazing! ⚠️ One thing to add in the future though: perhaps a rectangular tool? Everything else is great!
Very simple and easy to use. Just click the toolbar icon and move the magnifying glass around to wherever you want it. The only thing that could make this better would be if I could snap a pic of what I have zoomed into,

You can add your shortcut key, your zoom rating, all you have to do is to use it!

Thanks, this program helped me a lot I wish it didn't close when I scrolled the mouse.

FEATURE: Thks for this super cool extension. I want to use it for LIVE Youtube video presentation. Lots of time you need quick and easy zoom in a field. To make it work for LIVE youtubers we would need: 1) A rectangular lens 2) A keyboard shortcut to activate and deactivate 3) Have an optional mode to Keep it open even on mouse click ( and have the "activate button "in 2 deactivate on second key press ) Thanks

awesome. I sometimes read japanese comics on my pc but often some kanji are too small to see from so far away and this is a better fix than having to lean in all the way lol

Great! It's just need a mouse or keyboard shortcut button. I like middle mouse button for that.

Excellent. Requires no special permissions or site access, is less than 1 MB. You can zoom in first using command-+ a few times, then use the magnifier to really zoom in big time.

Does it have a hotkey shortcut?

This is probably one of the better magnifying glasses to use on the the web especially on a Chromebook. However it would be so much easier to use if the mouse pointer was at the end or around end of the circle. Having it in the middle, makes it difficult to direct and see where your pointing it off too and makes it difficult to "steer". Also usually we read paragraphs, and their in rectangular form, so changing the magnifier to a rectangle or square would be so much more convenient for reading purposes.

Does what is expected in a simple way, but I wish I could find something that would bring more clarity to the magnified text.
