User reviews

The TikTok Pixel Helper Chrome extension provides a quick way to verify pixel installation and detect standard events, but many users experience unreliability in pixel detection and event tracking. It can cause conflicts with other tools like Google Tag Manager and Google Docs, and does not work well with ad blockers or privacy-focused browsers. The extension lacks advanced debugging tools and may interfere with site functionality, making it frustrating for advertisers relying on accurate tracking and troubleshooting.

Pros

Quick and easy way to check if the TikTok pixel is firing on a website.
Detects standard events like page views and add to cart actions.
Some users report it works well for basic pixel installation verification.

Cons

Often fails to detect the pixel or track events reliably, with many users reporting it does not read or detect their pixel.
Causes compatibility issues with other tools like Google Tag Manager and Google Docs, sometimes disabling features or functionality.
Does not work properly in privacy-focused or ad-blocking browsers unless ad block is disabled.
Lacks real-time debugging or troubleshooting capabilities, making it hard to diagnose issues.
Interferes with other website functionalities and builders, such as Beaver Builder and Google Sheets URL changes, causing operational problems.

2/5 - Inconsistent and Unreliable Tested on Chrome and Brave while setting up TikTok Pixel for Shopify. In Chrome, the extension detects events, but they often don’t appear in TikTok Events Manager. In Brave, it doesn’t work at all, even with Shields off. Pros: Quick way to check if the pixel is firing Detects standard events like page view and add to cart Cons: Shows events that never appear in TikTok Events Manager Doesn’t work in privacy-focused browsers No real troubleshooting or real-time debugging Final Verdict: A basic tool for verifying installation, but unreliable for tracking or troubleshooting. Check Events Manager instead.

The extension previously interfered with how GTM is shown in the code (it appeared above <head> although the GTM-script was added inside of the <head> tags). Today I noticed it interfering with Google docs, making some settings greyed out and unavailable. As soon as I disabled this extension I was able to use Google docs normally.
