Review Summary
Users find the extension helpful in enabling text selection on some restricted sites, especially where other tools fail, aiding tasks like homework or copying locked content. However, it does not work consistently across all platforms, often fails on specific websites or elements, and requires page refresh to function, which some find inconvenient. Lack of recent updates may limit its compatibility with newer web protections.
Pros
- Effectively enables text selection on some websites that block it.
- Useful for copying text from read-only or locked comment sections or novel reading websites.
- Easy to use and does what it advertises in certain cases.
- Helpful for tasks like homework help or extracting specific content.
Cons
- Does not work consistently across all websites or page elements (e.g., Reddit, Google Calendar).
- Requires refreshing the page after activation, which can be inconvenient.
- Fails on grayed-out divs or certain locked content sections.
- Last updated in 2019, so may lack improvements or support for newer webpage restrictions.
