- (2023-07-03) Donald Prescott: Using in Edge. Works well enough when needed - I think the icon next to the phone numbers is a bit large and distracting but it works fine. Bug? It seems that when you load Edge it activates regardless of the switch setting. I leave it disabled most of the time so it is noticeable to me. I see the handset icon next to phone numbers but the icon is displaying the red X. If I click it twice then the handset disappears next to the phone numbers.
- (2023-02-23) H. Smith: Works great except for phones using common dot format. Example: 413.412.1245 This formatting is fairly common and it would be nice if the extension could treat the dot (period) as a hyphen. See: https://www.businesswritingblog.com/business_writing/2007/01/how_to_format_p.html
- (2022-08-04) c: Does what it is supposed to do .
- (2022-06-13) Stefan Martens: It detects numbers like +49 1234 567890 and 01234 567890 without problems. But it also detects some invalid numbers like in postal addresses, if they are written in one line, just separated with a comma. It also detects the video position (eg. "00:00:00 / 01:00:00") while streaming on Disney+ as telephone number. Hint for other users: If you want to use this with the Microsoft Smartphone Link app, to dial clicked numbers with your smartphone, select the tel protocol and disable the "Insert '//' notation" option in the options of this add in.
- (2022-02-25) Nicolas Moreau: Enfin ce que je cherchais pour pouvoir appeler depuis Chrome ou Brave sur mon Mac, comme je le faisait dans Safari.
- (2021-11-12) Дмитрий Долгих: Great. Just what I needed
- (2021-08-21) Stuart Foster: this is a great app, use it with tel linker for odd time it doesn't recognise it
- (2021-04-01) Simon Wood: This works perfectly, dialling Chrome telephone numbers with MS Teams. Thanks!
- (2020-03-23) Thom McKiernan: I wanted something that would let numbers use Microsoft Teams. At first it didn't work, numbers were detected but clicking one did nothing. However, I went to the Chrome Extension options and changed the top Protocol Selection dropdown from "dial" to "tel". Then after refreshing the page, clicking a number opened up Teams asking "do you want to dial this number", so mission accomplished :)

- (2019-12-02) Alex Bailey: It is no longer opening up the UC - ONE app anymore, stopped working on new chrome update, now Chrome basically prefers my Android phone? Not sure if Chrome bug or other bug.
- (2019-06-07) Mht Hogossi: bien
- (2019-05-10) Nick Allen: Very nice. Seems to work well for me and intelligently recognises a load of different formats, with different spacing and spacing characters in our global directory. Also intelligently drops the (0) in a number like +44 (0) 20 9999 9999. Seems to change some HTML cell sizes fractionally but it's also super easy to enable and disable just by clicking on the toolbar icon. Very good work, thanks!
- (2019-03-29) Numbers have to follow exactly the one single format that is recognized by this Add on, or they won't be linkified. +49 123 456789 is detected, but it's not capable handling numbers with special characters as they are customary in Europe like +49 (0) 123 456789 and +49 123/456789. There's no "phone" or custom protocol to use with. The former Add on "telify" for Firefox did all this and worked like a charm. But since Mozilla changed the add on API many many extremely good and helpful add ons are gone without replacement.
- (2019-03-14) Peter Hochstrasser: Funktioniert grundsätzlich. Allerdings sind die "Nummern" nicht konfigurierbar, sodass auch mal die eine oder andere Zahlengruppe vergessen geht - gerade bei deutschen Direktwahlen. In einigen anderen Fällen genügten lange Zahlen (incl. Buchstaben) um die Erkennung anschlagen zu lassen. Nur mit der Zahlenlänge sind Telefonnummern nicht sinnvoll einzugrenzen. Da braucht's schon regular expressions o.ä.
- (2018-10-22) Łukasz Janiec: Byłby super jakby była opcja dodania np 0 przed przesłaniem do programu.
- (2018-07-27) Alsafi Altuhami: ممتاز
- (2018-04-05) Patrice BOUDASSOU: fontionne très bien avec Bria par exemple tres simple d'utilisation, il suffit d'appuyer sur l'icone pour lancer un appel, c'est parfait. Par contre ne detecte pas les numéros de téléphone francais séparer avec des points comme par exemple : xx.xx.xx.xx Cela ne fonctionne pas et c'est vraiment dommage
- (2018-01-17) حسن عبدالسلام: ممتاز
- (2017-12-23) J.R. McCollough: It used to work great, but there seems to be a bug now where it only loads up Zoiper, but doesn't automatically dial the number.
- (2017-12-19) Ben Ravetta: This is completely useless. It opens the "Telephone" app in macOS with "sip:" in front of it, which won't dial.
- (2017-10-26) Younes Ashor: ممتاز
- (2016-11-17) Brandon Scivolette: AMAZING! I've been searching for something to identify phone numbers that are in editable fields, thus missing the normal "tel" markup. This extension solved that, love it! Thank you :)
- (2016-10-22) КХ Яблоновское: Лучшая
- (2015-12-11) Brian Nelson: Like the simplicity. Great time saver when connected with a xchange Samsung phone and headset
- (2015-04-19) Luna 2211: 1 word AWFUL !!!
- (2015-02-02) Ruben Aguiar: This is the cats meow. Simple to install and use.
- (2014-07-03) Just works, brilliant
- (2013-12-18) Mosin Nagant: It is simple and works great.
