User Reviews

Compared to other similar extensions, the smart proxy switcher is highly efficient. If the icon of the smart proxy switcher on the toolbar can be directly clicked with the mouse to enable/disable, it would be more efficient. Additionally, we would like to know: is the smart proxy switcher acting as a proxy for the entire tag page content, or is it only acting as a proxy for embedded (non openable) content within the tab page?
