User reviews

Users find Measure-it to be a simple, lightweight, and effective ruler extension for static web pages without ads or extra permissions. However, multiple reviews report significant issues: it frequently fails to work in mobile, tablet, and responsive modes, and size numbers can be hidden outside the viewport. It also struggles with modal windows and local files, limiting its usefulness for developers needing responsive design measurements.
Pros
  • Simple and easy to use ruler tool
  • Lightweight with no extra permissions needed
  • Works well on static pages

  • No ads or unwanted side effects
Cons
  • Does not work in mobile or tablet modes
  • Fails to function in Chrome's responsive or touch simulation modes
  • Size measurement display can be hidden or misplaced near page borders
  • Does not work when modal windows are open on the page
  • Does not work on local HTML files opened in the browser
