User reviews
Users appreciate Simple URL Copy for its simplicity, ability to clean URLs, and support for multiple copy formats including Markdown. It is particularly useful for those sharing links frequently in various formats. However, multiple users report issues with the default shortcut conflicting with Chrome developer tools shortcuts, a lack of ability to set a default copy format or remember last used format, and icon visibility problems in dark mode. Suggestions include enabling shortcut key customization within the extension and adding default format settings to improve usability.
Pros
- Simple and easy to use interface matching the extension's name 'Simple URL Copy'.
- Useful functionalities like cleaning URLs from unnecessary parameters for Amazon, Facebook, etc.
- Supports multiple copy formats including Markdown, useful for platforms like Backlog or Redmine.
- Provides a convenient way to copy URL with or without title for quick sharing.
- Highly appreciated by users who frequently need to copy and paste URLs with formatting.
Cons
- Default shortcut conflicts with Chrome Developer Tools (Ctrl+Shift+C), causing it not to work unless changed.
- No option to set a default copy format such as 'only URL'; users have to manually select it every time.
- Extension does not remember the last used copy format setting, leading to repeated manual selection.
- Issues with icon visibility in dark mode (icon appears black and hard to see).
- No customization for shortcut keys from within the extension, forcing users to change via Chrome settings.

Extension name "simply url" and doesn't allow me to copy only the URL, but necessarily title + url

● Chromeの開発者ツールとショートカットが被っていて機能しない。ショートカットキーは拡張機能側でカスタマイズできるようにするべき。
● 最後に選択したコピーの書式を記憶してほしい。
2年以上放置のようなので、期待できないと思うけど。
