User reviews

Thank you for this extension. This functionality should be built into all browsers! Works well; just as expected.

Excellent extension. Fills a great void. Chrome should build this functionality into the browser.

Safety

Risk impact

Longdesc is risky to use as it requires a number of sensitive permissions that can potentially harm your browser and steal your data. Exercise caution when installing this extension. Review carefully before installing. We recommend that you only install Longdesc if you trust the publisher.
