User reviews

Selekt is praised for its usefulness, reliability, and simplicity in enhancing text selection tasks in Chrome, offering features like saving to clipboard and quick actions. However, common issues include the copy button not functioning properly, a need for customization of popup options and default keys, and imprecise behavior of search buttons. Users also desire expanded search engine support and additional features like cut and paste. Overall, it is considered a valuable and effective extension but could benefit from more customization and improved interaction responsiveness.

Pros

Very useful and saves time by providing quick actions on text selection.
Reliable and works smoothly across websites and text fields.
Allows saving copied text to standard or custom clipboards, aiding note-taking.
Simple and effective user interface with helpful default options.
Positive user sentiment appreciating its functionality compared to other similar extensions.

Cons

Copy button functionality is reported as not working properly by multiple users.
Lack of customization options such as disabling specific keys and modifying popup content.
Search functionality requires precise clicking on icons, reducing ease of use.
No built-in support for additional search engines like YouTube or Yandex, which users desire.
Limited functionality such as missing cut and paste options was noted as areas for improvement.

Il tasto "copia" non funziona. The "copy" button doesn't work.

Расширение супер, работает всегда и везде, хоть на сайте текст выделен, хоть в текстовом поле, панель всплывает всегда, но есть один недостаток для меня, это нужно обязательно прицеливаться не просто в кнопку, а прямо в значок. Выделил текст, появилась панель, подводишь мышку, кнопка "лупа" уже загорелась зеленым, но при нажатии ни чего не происходит, второй раз выделяешь, наводишь мышку конкретно на значок лупы и тогда поиск работает на все 100%.
