User Reviews

Users find the Search image add-on convenient and effective for image searches directly from selected text. It integrates well with the Firefox context menu, aiding usability. However, multiple users note the default Google Images search is in English, leading to issues when searching for localized information, suggesting a need for configurable language settings. Additionally, the extension's icon looks outdated, and the context menu label could be clearer. Overall, it is a highly valued and functional add-on with some room for polish in user experience.

Pros

Convenient and easy to use for searching images from selected text.
Highly appreciated by users as a valuable tool for image search.
Effective functionality with integration into the context menu.
Regularly used and praised for its effectiveness.
Icon presence in the context menu helps identify the extension.

Cons

Default search language is English, which may not suit all users; no option to set preferred language.
Icon design is considered outdated by some users and could use a modern update.
Context menu item label is generic ('Search image') and could be more descriptive.

Is Search image Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Search image requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
