Extension summary

We all miss the mobile keyboard's auto suggest feature when we use our desktop or laptop. This is a simple extension to bridge that gap!

Get suggestions for words in real time when you type!

You can use the mouse to select the word you want to use or use the shortcuts :

CTRL + M : to select the first option CTRL + < : to select the second option CTRL + > : to select the third option

Typing on the web has never been easier!

Cheers

User reviews

The idea is good, but it needs some refinement, needing to grab the mouse to select is less efficient, if you type eg "wood" it will suggest words starting with "wood" but if you backspace two characters, then type "od" it will start suggesting words starting with "od" even though you might just be making a spelling correction. The big black box needs to be far more subtle, like in gmail autocomplete.
