User reviews

The Crunchyroll: Picture in Picture extension is praised for effectively enabling PiP mode on Crunchyroll, helping users multitask by viewing content in a pop-out window that can be resized. It generally works well on browsers like Chrome and OperaGX and is appreciated by many. However, a significant downside is the lack of subtitle support while in PiP mode, which many users consider critical and is not prominently disclosed. Some users also experience issues where the extension merely opens a new tab instead of PiP, especially in Chrome. Overall, it serves a valuable function but has notable limitations around subtitles.

Pros

Effectively enables Picture in Picture (PiP) functionality on Crunchyroll, which is not natively available.
Easy to use and works smoothly on browsers like Chrome and OperaGX.
Helps users multitask by allowing them to watch Crunchyroll content while doing other things.
Allows resizing of the PiP window, enhancing user control.
Appreciated for solving a common user need and generally reliable.

Cons

Lack of subtitle support in PiP mode is a major drawback for many users who watch subtitled content.
Some users report that the extension opens a new tab instead of enabling PiP, particularly in Chrome, causing confusion about its functionality.
The absence of subtitles in PiP mode is a technical limitation not clearly disclosed in the extension description, leading to user disappointment.
Privacy concerns raised due to data collection policies (though this was only mentioned in one review).

Esta bien, -1 estrella solo porque no tiene subtitulos :c

It worked fine as PiP however, no subtitles means it's unfortunately no use whatsoever to me. Judging by comments this seems like a technical limitation, which is a shame as otherwise perfect.
