The last update for this extension was June 25, 2024, so 1.5 years ago. The app no longer works, at least not with Edge browser on Windows 11. I'm uninstalling. Thanks for the free app though, back when it was working. I do appreciate that. Google Images has become all but useless. I feel sorry for people who are trying to online-date and they need to run an image search to see if their new love is a romance scammer - searches for faces are no longer allowed. Thanks a lot, Google. Just when people needed it most.

I cannot figure out how to invoke it. If I see an image I like, a right-click does nothing. If I open the extension manually, I get only the settings windows. And the settings windows are not at all obvious to use. If you change a setting, then you have to "x" the window which seems like cancel to me. I could not tell whether I'd changed the options or not. There is no documentation I can find on how to use it. A lot of people may like it, but for me it was frustrating and unusable. I notice that even the people who supposedly like it are still complaining about clunkiness. E.g. "Pressing 'Open image in new tab' seems to be the only way to center images." This sounds like a hassle to me. Try something else is my advice.

I'm getting a message that "not working" is not a problem, but the problem is that it's broke my google image section. what a shame.

DONT USE THIS!!! is asking for permission to nonexistent websites.

Why, following the update, is it now asking for permission to "read and change your data on all goocatgle.rs sites"? That domain doesn't even exist (check on any DNS lookup service).

Google/Chrome updates have sadly broken this, such a shame as it was an amazing extension, and thank you to the devs for creating and updating it. If they ever managed to fix it I will certainly change this back to 5 stars because it's fantastic when it works

No longer works and is bloatware now. What a shame. Scroll down to see Josh Fluney's review which offers a workaround.

This extension no longer works. This is now how to re-enable the 'view image' functionality: 1. Disable/delete this extension 2. Add the "Tampermonkey" extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tampermonkey/dhdgffkkebhmkfjojejmpbldmpobfkfo 3. Add the "View Image" userscript: https://gist.github.com/ner00/ec9ae47e202b8e99f19be44a5af6baf3/raw/viewimage.user.js Restart your browser then boom, it works again!
