Review summary

Users overwhelmingly praise ScrollAnywhere for making scrolling smoother, being high‑quality and repeatedly relied upon, and restoring useful scrolling behavior. The main downside reported by multiple reviewers is occasional reliability issues — it can stop working or need re‑enabling — and a minority of users report it appears non‑functional or confusing to use.

Pros

Smoother, improved scrolling — users repeatedly say it makes browsing and scrolling feel much better (including in VMs or when mouse-wheel is poor).
High quality and reliable — several reviews note they reinstall and reuse it on new machines and call it essential/indispensable.
Restores a useful scrolling behavior and is versatile — multiple users praise that it “works beautifully,” helps in places like slides, and provides a pleasant, old‑school UI.

Cons

Occasional reliability problems — multiple reports that the add‑on can stop working or requires re‑enabling (toolbar toggle) to function.
Some users experience non‑functional behavior or confusion — there are complaints that it appears not to work for some users or that usage isn’t immediately clear.

2026-03-22	Sp*****	This extension is an incredible life-saver for a very specific issue on Linux. I have a touchscreen laptop running Fedora in the GNOME desktop environment, and a known issue in this setup is that digital styluses and pens will not scroll by default on any app by dragging the tip, and it will select text instead. Scrolling is the default behavior on Windows (or easily enabled through Windows Ink / tablet drivers) and my laptop's stylus was experiencing this issue when I used it on its integrated touchscreen. Enabling all the Left Button settings on the extension completely resolved the issue, and I can still double click on my stylus or hold Ctrl (both of these also settings in the extension) to select text as usual. I mainly use this laptop for college almost exclusively on Firefox, and I can finally use tablet mode, scroll through my textbooks, and take hand-written notes without issue. 100% recommend

2026-03-16	an*****	addon features is very nice, I've been a fan of this addon over 10 years (maybe?) as Japanese translation is very bad, please consider to have an option of UI languages. English option menus are more readable for me.
