User reviews

Users appreciate that the Life Science Dictionary Tool is now compatible with Firefox Quantum and retains its dictionary functionality for known terms. However, many find it less useful because it fails to define unfamiliar words and lacks the handy feature to display definitions only upon pressing a key. Additionally, previous menu options are missing, causing usability issues. The add-on sometimes does not show expected popups after installation, and outdated usage documentation further hinders user experience. Users hope for updates to restore key features and improve usability.

Pros

Integration with Firefox Quantum is available now, which users appreciate.
Offers dictionary functionality that shows meanings of known terms.
User experience is satisfactory and meets previous standards after updates.

Cons

Does not display dictionary meanings for unknown or less common words, limiting usefulness.
Lacks feature to show dictionary only when a specific key is pressed, making it less user-friendly.
Menu and controls available in previous versions (pre-Quantum) are missing in the current version.
Installation issues such as no popup appearing after restart, causing confusion.
Documentation or usage instructions are outdated and do not reflect current add-on behavior.
