Review summary

User reviews are mixed. The main downsides are performance slowdowns even with no proxy and usability bugs (non-responsive UI, persistent broken config after uninstall). There are some positive notes: Cloudflare tunnel functionality can work well for routing, and the log feature is valued. Occasional SOCKS5 compatibility issues and requests for better Chinese localization are also mentioned. Overall, reliability and performance appear to be the primary concerns, with limited consistently strong positives.

Pros

Cloudflare tunnel support works well for routing traffic
The log feature is useful for tracking proxy activity
Some reviewers described it as OK/Good and usable

Cons

Significant performance slowdown; browser and device can be slowed even when no proxy is active
Hard to use and buggy; intermittent UI issues; uninstall can leave broken config and there is no reset button
Incompatibility with OpenSSH SOCKS5
Localization/Chinese language support could be improved

2026-07-02	Fi*****	Since I am unable to directly reply to other users' comments, I am commenting here instead. Regarding the issue reported by some users that the extension cannot be used, it is suggested to try changing the value of the "network.proxy.type" setting in about:config. If the value is 0, you can try changing it to 1. If it is PAC, you can change it to 5.
