Review Summary

Users appreciate Local Cache for saving internet data and enhancing their workflow. However, multiple reviews highlight the absence of features to disable caching on specific sites and difficulty clearing the extension's cache, which impairs usability. Additionally, it sometimes behaves strangely on platforms like YouTube by accumulating large amounts of unused data. Overall, while valuable, the extension needs improvements in cache management and selective site caching controls.

Pros

  • Significantly saves internet data usage.
  • Highly useful and essential for users' workflows.
  • Generally praised as a very good and useful extension.

Cons

  • Lack of ability to disable caching for specific websites; users want an option to blacklist sites from caching.
  • No user-friendly way to clear the extension's cached data, causing difficulties especially during development.
  • Causes issues on some sites (e.g., YouTube) by storing large amounts of unwanted data, leading to unusual behaviors.
