Review summary

Simage is praised for restoring the vital "Save Images" functionality in Firefox Quantum, allowing users to efficiently save images and avoid bandwidth waste. Users appreciate its simplicity and support for opening multiple images. However, many are frustrated by the inability to set download folders, lack of hotkeys, and errors during operation. Performance issues like high CPU load and problems saving multiple images at once are common. Despite limitations and occasional bugs, Simage fills the gap left by the older Save Images add-on and is recommended by many users.

Pros

Restores important functionality similar to the old "Save Images" add-on for Firefox Quantum users.
Allows saving images from the current tab efficiently, avoiding double downloads and saving bandwidth.
Simple and easy to use with a straightforward interface.
Enables opening multiple images or links in one tab or multiple tabs for easy access.
Receives praise for continuing the legacy of the older, popular Save Images extension, helping users who missed the original functionality.

Cons

Lacks hotkey support; users must click the toolbar icon to save images, unlike previous versions.
Inability to save images directly to a user-selected folder; users want options to set download folders or remember previous choices.
Issues with copying images without unwanted links or div tags inserted, causing extra cleanup work for users.
Some users report errors like 'type error bh.images is not defined' or 'showSaveDetails Error' causing malfunction.
Performance problems reported, including high CPU usage causing Firefox to hang or slow down.
Difficulties saving multiple images at once; opening multiple images in one tab sometimes prevents saving them all properly.
