Review summary

Users praise smartUp Gestures as a powerful, feature-rich addon with a vast set of actions and built-in Apps (QR, random numbers, tabs list). It's described as highly usable and cross-browser, with stability even after years without updates. The main caveat is security: multiple reviews warn about malware/adware risks tied to the Chrome version, reducing trust. A few users report occasional bugs or quirks (gesture/feature not working as expected).

Pros

Extremely feature-rich with a large number of gestures and built-in Apps (e.g., random number generator, QR generator, tabs list).
Very useful and versatile, offering a broad action set for various tasks.
Cross-browser compatibility / cross-browser usefulness.
Long-standing and surprisingly stable even after years without major updates.

Cons

Security concerns: Chrome version flagged for malware/adware, which undermines trust in the extension.

2024-12-04	Gr*****	One problem I have with it is that its Super Drag ignores link actions on images and there's no setting to change that. If an image is linking to a bigger version of itself, the low res one will be saved. What's especially bad is that even if you set image action to None, link action is still ignored if link is an image and thus no action is performed. As for mouse gestures, I recommend StrokesPlus, not just for FireFox. Other than this issue, the extension is good and deserves a 5*
