Review Summary
Users appreciate Chrome Response Override for its quick and simple response modification capabilities during debugging, saving time without needing programming skills. However, many report serious issues: it only functions when DevTools are open, faces compatibility problems with recent Chrome APIs, often fails to appear in DevTools, and frequently triggers CORS errors. Numerous users found it unsuccessful in practice despite attempts to fix settings or patterns. Overall, while the extension offers useful features, stability and compatibility challenges hinder its reliability for many.
