User reviews
Pros
- Functions as advertised, providing image zoom capabilities effectively.
- Does not open images in new tabs, allowing faster and smoother zooming within the same page.
- Simple and easy to use, fulfilling basic zoom needs without complications.
- Works reliably on most images and Google Images, unlike some other similar extensions.
- Respectful of page reloads, making the zoom process quicker and less disruptive.
Cons
- Zoom direction with scroll wheel is counterintuitive (scroll forward zooms out and backward zooms in).
- Some images embedded within pages do not zoom directly and require opening in a new tab first.
- Controls (zoom in/out, close buttons) are hard to see in dark browser themes due to lack of adaptive color changes.
- Lack of detailed description in the extension, leading to confusion about functionality.
- Some users report it doesn't work, indicating inconsistent performance or misunderstanding of features.

Why does scrolling forward zoom out and scrolling backward zoom in? That’s so counterintuitive.

It does what it says it does! That deserves big congratulations, because every similar extension I've tried does not.

Extension safety
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk
impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of
damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your
personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they
do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Image Zoom requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
Risk impact analysis details
- Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious.
This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on
Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been
around, and other signals about the
Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change
as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always
exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.
Image Zoom is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this extension.
