Reviews & Comments of Instant Preview chrome extension

Its working ok but why no hotkey setup available?

USED USED to be good now its garbage.

Works. Please support Web Search Navigator. Something like: if user opens page in new tab (CTRL+click link) it opens the preview instead.

It does exactly what it proposes to do and it's been working fine since I downloaded it. However, there's just one thing that initially was just a little bit annoying, but it wasn't long until it became really annoying, which is: 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 not-so-pleasant to read. Please, fix this minor detail, which I suppose is something pretty simple, and it will deservedly earn the 5th star.

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.

If you got any issues please try to turn off the ad blocker

It doenst work :/ 12.6.2022

It's not working anymore. Disappointing.

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.

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.

it laggs

Thank you for zoom button! UPDATE: please check in Opera.

I like it, it's very useful. But now i can not use it.

Can we get a setting to keep the close(X) button always visible in iframe?

why does it highlight everything so annoying!!

there should be option to set default position/height/width of the popup window.

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

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.

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!

After update (preview shows in new window) the extension have become very annoying. I'm removing it.

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.

Awesome for 5-10years. Hasn't worked for several months - just hangs on progress bar.

FINALLY FIXED!! THANK YOU!!!

Thank you

No change whatsoever.

Thank you so much !!!

It has potential but not useful for me without keyboard shortcuts to select different results. I'll check it again after some months in case they have been added. Regards.

Perfect

Works well with SearchPreview. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/searchpreview/hcjdanpjacpeeppdjkppebobilhaglfo/reviews?utm_source=chrome-app-launcher-info-dialog Don't forget to use AdBlock and porns-Blocker!!

Works perfectly so far

I liked it first when it could do what I wanted to e.g. display a search preview window in google search (on same window). I could play youtube videos while searching. Now, this function does not work anymore, not for youtube only but for other sites too. And one of it's problem is that it's not displaying the web content clearly. If a website has a different layout or web language it shows error or display weirdly. Quite disappointing after an update when it worked very well.

The extension works really well, no ads so far and no complaint about that. However I have just started using it recentlu, so do not know if I will encounter a bug with this. I really like the idea for search preview and great to see such feature which were once integrated with google search by google works again. I also have a suggestion for the developer: Please, could you make an option to show thumbnail of the page too, so the preview would load faster for those with slow bandwith and just who wants to see the thumbnail not the whole site preview. This way whomever like thumnail or whole preview can select either or both of them depending on their preference. Thanks.

Best research tool. comes in handy. only drawback is sometimes it does not load on search page!! Pls fix it

not works

Having to point each link with the mouse is too cumbersome and inefficient. This could have been useful to check links faster with the keyboard: using the up and down key used to work great when Google first released this preview feature (which was removed soon after probably -just a guess- due to their business model) but unfortunately this extension is not using keyboard shortcuts. Hope next version has this done (I'm un-enabling it instead of uninstalling it just in case they do it later). Anyway, for this extension to be usable/practical the preview has to be displayed faster than it is now... Hope they manage to make it.

very good!

what is "overserving its quota"?

please put an option for delay time b4 preview appear. sometimes , i just want to open in another new tab instead of using this extension.

First search preview extension to fix the "white block" bug that occurs in recent versions of Chrome! Thank you!

I have know clue what happen but this use to work so awesome but now it no longer works tried to re install many time to no help in getting it to work. i loved this add on now can not use it
