Review summary

Users praise PopUp as a simple, reliable way to create small persistent windows for web apps and quick references. Common complaints focus on lack of keyboard/activation shortcuts, restore/merge integration problems (notably with Tree Style Tab), and limited customization options such as title, modal/address-bar controls, and open-without-closing behavior.

Pros

Creates convenient small pop-up windows for web apps and quick-reference pages, making multitasking easier.
Simple and lightweight — multiple users say it 'gets the job done' and is reliable.
Good for keeping a persistent, off-to-side window (e.g., messaging or reference) while working.

Cons

No built-in keyboard shortcut or flexible activation methods — users request shortcuts, alt+click, or gesture support.
Problems restoring/merging pop-ups back into normal tabs (reports of broken behavior and poor integration with Tree Style Tab).
Limited customization options — users want more settings (popup title, modal/address bar controls, ability to open popup without closing the current window).

2024-06-18	aq*****	Be it this 'Popup' or the other similar 'Popup Window' extension, both face an issue when merging back to a tab and only 1 tab is opened, in particular userChromeJS scripts fail after Merge. Hence, an option to prevent the extension from running when only 1 tab is opened would be welcomed.
