User reviews

Users find 'Resize Window & Viewport' effective for resizing window width and appreciate its simplicity and responsive mode shortcut. However, it lacks height resizing, customization of sizes, and reliable window size persistence. Several users also noted limitations such as non-functioning shortcuts on Mac and the add-on resizing the entire window rather than just the viewport, leading to mixed reviews about its usefulness.

Pros

Resizes window width quickly and effectively as promised.
The add-on is simple and user-friendly.
The Ctrl+Shift+M responsive mode is appreciated and useful for testing breakpoints.
It performs its intended function reliably with no major issues reported by some users.

Cons

Only supports resizing window width; height resizing is missing or requested by multiple users.
Limited number of preset widths with lack of customization options.
Does not 'stick' to window size when sites reload, reverting to full screen.
Keyboard shortcuts (e.g., Ctrl+Shift+M) don't work on Mac OS as expected.
The viewport resizing affects the entire window, not just the viewport area, causing redundancy.

Only supports width and the "viewport" options don't resize the viewport, they resize the actual window making them redundant.
