Review Summary
Users appreciate the simplicity and effectiveness of the Send URL Chrome extension, especially with Gmail and Outlook on Windows. It does exactly what it promises without overcomplication or requiring access to personal accounts. However, multiple users report issues with compatibility on certain email clients like MacOS Mail and Windows Live Mail, including failures to launch email clients, opening blank tabs, and emails lacking proper hyperlink formatting. Despite minor quirks like leftover browser windows, it provides useful functionality similar to Firefox's native feature.
