Review Summary
Most users praise the extension for its efficiency, reliability, and advanced features like regex support, significantly streamlining text editing tasks online. However, multiple reviews mention serious issues with compatibility in certain editors (e.g., Nuclino, Facebook), unintended automatic replacements leading to lost text, the widget's inconvenient behavior requiring frequent reopening, and occasional browser performance problems. Overall, it is highly valued when it functions correctly, but users encounter inconsistency depending on the web application in use.
Pros
- Works perfectly for find and replace tasks on various websites and editors.
- Supports regex replacement, adding advanced find and replace functionality.
- Saves significant time compared to manual copy-pasting or editing in office programs.

- Reliable and the only extension found that works flawlessly for this purpose.
Cons
- Does not work properly in some editors like Nuclino and Facebook where it either fails to replace or causes excessive highlighting.

- Edits revert back to original when navigating between pages in some cases.
- Widget closes too quickly, requiring reopening repeatedly when working with editable text boxes.
