ImagePreviewer Firefox

ImagePreviewer

Shows a popup with an image preview when hovering over link that points to an image file or a page with an image.

Features & Capabilities

ImagePreviewer is a Chrome extension designed to enhance your browsing experience by displaying a popup with an image preview whenever you hover over a link that points directly to an image file or a webpage containing an image. This immediate visual feedback helps you quickly identify images linked on various pages without needing to click or load the link.

Important: ImagePreviewer depends on the LinkFilterAPI from the LinkRedirector extension to function properly. Users must install LinkRedirector to enable ImagePreviewer's preview feature. To use, simply move your cursor over an image link, and a popup will appear with the preview. Moving the cursor away or clicking the popup will cause it to disappear. This tool streamlines image browsing and aids in quicker content identification on the web.

Does not work. Message "Filter is not exist" keeps popping up. In the settings the filter dropdown does not show anything to select.

Is ImagePreviewer Safe?

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.

ImagePreviewer requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious.
