User reviews

Cr!Box is a highly valued Firefox add-on for Fritz!Box users, praised for its quick IP switching and reliable functionality, serving as a strong substitute for the discontinued FoxBox. Common drawbacks include the need to double click to activate it, absence of persistent IP display in the toolbar, and limited permanent running in Firefox. Some users report occasional issues with saving settings related to browser storage configurations. Overall, it is appreciated for fulfilling key features and continuous improvement despite minor usability quirks.

Pros

Essential for Fritz!Box users as a replacement for the discontinued FoxBox add-on.
Allows IP address switching without interrupting streams.
Functions reliably and is considered superior to standalone tools.
Quickly assigns new IP addresses.

Cons

Requires double clicking to activate and view data, which some users find inconvenient.
Lacks persistent display of current IP address in the toolbar, unlike FoxBox.
Not always running permanently; limited presence in Firefox compared to previous add-on.
Settings might not save properly if browser local storage is disabled.
