Review Summary
iZoom is appreciated for automating zoom adjustments to fit web pages to monitor size, especially benefiting users with high-resolution or smaller screens. However, users frequently encounter inconsistent zoom levels across various websites, with issues like over-zooming and inability to manually correct zoom on specific pages. Multiple monitor support is poor, which can cause excessive zooming and scrolling problems. Additionally, the extension may interfere with page elements such as audio sliders, and font sizes can become uncomfortably small. Overall, while helpful, these issues limit its effectiveness for some users.
Pros
- Automatically adjusts zoom level based on browser window size, improving readability on smaller windows.
- Works well on high resolution screens like 4K or large monitors by saving manual zoom effort.
- Useful for users with tiling window managers or those who frequently resize windows.
- Allows disabling the zoom quickly when it's not needed.
- Provides a better browsing experience by fitting web pages to monitor size without manual adjustments.
Cons
- Inconsistent zoom behavior across different websites; some pages get over-zoomed, making content unreadable.
- Does not handle multiple monitor setups well, leading to excessive zoom or horizontal scrolling.
- Lack of manual zoom control or override feature for individual sites, causing user frustration.
- Some users report the extension breaks elements like audio sliders or disables page functionality.
- Font size sometimes becomes too small after zoom adjustments, reducing usability.
