## Review summary

Overall, users praise Gear for its powerful, script-friendly feature set and responsive support, including strong dev tools. However, recurring drawbacks are reliability of extensions, crashes, pricing, missing essentials, and slower performance. The app is valued by power users who want scripting capabilities, but many would hesitate to pay for a subscription or endure stability and feature gaps.

### Pros

- Excellent support for userscripts and built-in developer tools, including document-start script injection.
- Very responsive customer support with swift bug fixes.
- Powerful, feature-rich browser with extensive customization and tools (ad-block, media handling, shortcuts).
- Video/media saving and management via scripts.

### Cons

- Extensions are unreliable; many extensions don’t work or are not fully supported.
- Frequent crashes and stability issues when loading or restoring tabs.
- Subscription model and pricing are a major turn-off; paywalls perceived as expensive.
- Missing essential features and clear UI gaps (pin tabs, default homepage, custom search) and related UI limitations.
- Performance can be slower than competing browsers like Safari.
