User reviews
Users value Eye Dropper as a simple, free, and reliable tool for picking colors from web pages, especially useful for graphic design, with a helpful interface and history tracking. However, many recent reviews complain that recent updates broke the core eyedropper functionality, making it hard or impossible to pick colors directly from websites, introducing usability challenges and bugs. Longtime users express disappointment, as the extension was previously praised for ease of use and efficiency.
