Review Summary

Users praise Context Menu Search as a highly useful and time-saving tool with excellent customization options, essential for daily browsing tasks. However, a recent major update (version 3.0) caused significant issues, including loss of functionality, broken imports, and disappearance from the context menu. Many users dislike the forced AI integration and introduction of premium paid features, which spoil their experience and trust. Despite these problems, users remain hopeful for a fix or updates to restore usability.

Cons
