Review Summary
Users appreciate this extension for efficient multi-word search and highlighting on regular web pages, saving time and enhancing search across multiple tabs. It offers valuable features like customizable highlight colors and partial diacritics support. However, multiple reviews highlight its inability to operate on in-browser PDFs and within iframes, which limits its usefulness in some scenarios. Issues with functionality loss after page navigation, limited UI polish, and unexpected behaviors like underlining instead of highlighting were also noted. Overall, it's a powerful tool with some areas needing improvement.
Pros
- Effectively highlights multiple search terms on standard web pages, improving search functionality beyond Ctrl+F.
- Saves users significant time, especially for data entry and handling many IDs or multi-word highlighting tasks.
- Allows saving queries for use across multiple tabs, enhancing usability.
- Includes useful features like color-changing of highlights and jumping between word hits.
- Supports diacritics to some extent, catering to languages with accented letters.
Cons
- Does not work or is very limited in functionality on PDFs opened in the browser, which is a common use case for searches.
- Fails to search within iframe elements on web pages, limiting its effectiveness in nested page content.
- Sometimes loses functionality or stops working after page navigation, such as on LinkedIn search pagination.
- The user interface is not perfect, and some desired features like autorun on page load and replacing the default browser search are missing.
- Highlighting can degrade to just underlining words unexpectedly, with unclear causes.
