Short description
Zoom images/videos on all your favorite websites (Facebook, Amazon, etc). Simply hover your mouse over the image to enlarge it. View hidden tagged photos of anyone without being friends (This is a NON-official Facebook app)
Full summary

Hover your mouse over any image on the supported websites and the extension will automatically enlarge the image to its full size, making sure that it still fits into the browser window.

This is an open source version of the original HoverZoom extension which is now overrun by malware and deleted from store. In this version all spyware has been removed, many bugs were fixed and new features were added. It doesn't collect any statistics by default. The only permission it needs is to access data on all websites (to extract full images), and optional permissions to access browser history, download/save images or get tab urls for per-site configuration.

Sometimes sites change design and when it happens extension needs to be updated. Please report any issues with zoom not working by using Support tab or https://github.com/extesy/hoverzoom/issues page.

Disclaimer: This is NOT an official Facebook app.

PictureMate is a single button on Chrome for you to find publicly tagged photos of anyone on Facebook or other social media sites without requiring to be friends with them

To use:

  1. Go to a user's profile (You don't need to be friends)
  2. Click on PIctureMate's icon

How does this work:

PictureMate finds the user’s ID of a given profile, and through graph search, finds all tagged photos of anyone.
