Review Summary

SmoothScroll is praised for significantly improving scrolling smoothness and user experience across most websites, especially on Windows. However, users frequently report issues with the extension not working during zoomed-in states, malfunctioning on popular sites like Telegram and YouTube Shorts, compatibility problems on Linux, and interfering with specific input functionalities. Additionally, some mention it stops working with newer Chrome versions. Despite these cons, many users find it a valuable alternative to Chrome's default scrolling behavior.

Pros

  • Provides smooth scrolling experience enhancing usability.
  • Works well on most websites and improves browsing comfort.
  • Preferred over default Chrome smooth scroll options that cause dizziness or jerkiness.
  • Positive feedback about its performance on Windows systems.
  • Appreciated by long-time users for consistent smooth scrolling.

Cons

  • Does not work properly when zoomed in (above 100%) on websites.
  • Fails to function on specific sites like Telegram Web, YouTube Shorts, and grouped tabs in Chrome.
  • Has compatibility issues on Linux environments (KDE and GNOME).
  • Interferes with certain functionality, such as horizontal scrolling and spacebar usage on some websites (e.g., Reddit, copilot.microsoft.com).
  • Reported to malfunction or stop working in the latest Chrome versions.
