User Reviews

Containers Helper significantly improves Firefox containers by allowing bulk actions, quick container creation, and advanced management, especially beneficial for users managing many containers. It addresses limitations in Firefox's native container support and offers improved usability. However, it lacks some automation features like site-to-container assignments, has minor bugs, and users have reported issues with default URL settings. Documentation could also be improved for better accessibility. Overall, it's highly valued for easing container management and has responsive developer support.

  • Enables quick searching and creation of new containers directly from the search interface.
  • Enhances Firefox's container functionality by adding advanced UI and management features.
  • Supports advanced users needing to manage dozens of containers effectively.

  • Presence of minor bugs, such as multi-select not clearing after deletion.
  • Some users experience issues or confusion when setting default URLs for containers leading to errors.
  • Limited documentation and help features mostly available only in English and embedded in settings, making translation difficult.
