User Reviews

The reviews consistently praise the add-on for simplicity and speed: one-click copies, ability to copy large blocks or entire pages, and especially useful on sites that block copying or for users with shaky hands. It's seen as a strong productivity boost. Reported drawbacks include links within copied text triggering navigation, and page-specific edge cases (frames, certain table content, or site protections). Some users also request mouse-only context menus or hotkeys for even easier use. Overall, highly favorable with a few UX and compatibility caveats.

Pros

One-click text selection and copying without manual highlighting.
Saves time and boosts productivity, especially for long passages.
Works on sites that block copying, letting you retrieve text that would normally be blocked.
Helpful for users with shaky hands or difficulty selecting text.
Simple and reliable, integrates smoothly into regular browsing with minimal setup.

Is Copy text with Alt-Click Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Copy text with Alt-Click requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
