UX Check

Run a heuristic evaluation on your website

What is UX Check?

UX Check is a Chrome extension designed to facilitate the process of heuristic evaluations. It opens Nielsen's Ten Heuristics in a side pane next to the website being evaluated. The tool allows a user to select an element that may not comply with a heuristic guideline, add notes, and save a screenshot for reference. All feedback can then be organized into a docx file for easy sharing with your team, promoting effective and efficient improvements to your website's user experience.

It's a nice a useful extension to give a feedback for a website. Would be also cool to have ability to not only choose the <div> to annotate, but also make custom screenshots (i.e. with screenshot savers - draw a square).
