Review summary

Users praise Hyper Drag for being very convenient, easy to use, and productive, with many long-time users calling it a must-have. The extension is reliable and flexible, offering a broad drag-and-search workflow that works well in many contexts. However, multiple reviews report site-specific compatibility problems, causing unexpected behavior on certain pages. There are also issues with search actions not triggering consistently (sometimes opening a new tab instead of performing searches) and occasional bugs like active-tab behavior. Requests include custom search engines and per-domain options.
Pros
  • Very convenient and increases productivity.
  • Reliable and a long-time favorite among users.
  • Flexible and useful drag-and-search functionality.
  • Generally works well for opening links and text searches across sites.
Cons
  • Site compatibility issues on some websites causing misbehavior.
  • Inconsistent drag/search behavior, sometimes opening a new tab instead of triggering the search.
  • Some reports of Google search not working across sites.
  • Bugs like active-tab opening when it should return to the source tab.

2024-12-30 夕阳***** Thanks to the author. Can you add a timeout setting? For example, if I drag a link and I don't release the mouse for more than 500ms (users can set the time themselves), the dragging behavior will be canceled. Compared with the min drag distance, I prefer timeout.
