User reviews

These summaries are automatically generated weekly using AI based on recent user reviews. Chrome Web Store does not verify user reviews, so some user reviews may be inaccurate, spammy, or outdated.

Pros

The recent update seems more secure, especially with the password visibility feature when typing.
Effective in keeping out social engineers and intruders.
Worked well for certain users in terms of functionality.

Cons

The latest update led to functionality issues, including the annoyance of needing to click to type and then hit enter for confirmation.
Users reported that the extension can be easily bypassed by uninstalling it or opening new tabs without inputting the password.
The removal of the previous pop-up feature has frustrated many users, who preferred the older version.
There are complaints about performance issues, such as delays and pages not loading properly.

Most mentioned

Requests for the return of the older version of the extension due to frustrations with the new update.
Users expressing concerns over the ease of bypassing the password protection.
Issues with functionality and performance after the recent update.

User reviews

The recent update seems more secure, and the password is not visible when typing, but *please* make it so that the typing field is auto-selected on launch, and the keyboard "Enter" enters the password. As it is now, we need to click on the text edit field, then type, and again click on the Enter button to confirm. Too much mousing!
