slow (3~5 seconds for loading) , huge window (I won't call it a "preview") and not actually convenient (you need to manually close the window after it pops up).

Just wish there was shortcut and shortcut only options.

Better than the last 2 similar extensions I tried.
I like the load up bar, but this still doesn't seem as quick as an extension I used in the past, and I'm trying to find it again.

Finally! I can now avoid infusing my browser history with word lookups. Well-built and easy-to-use ?

I am loving this extension, found it to be very helpful and time saving for research. No more endless tabs.

Simple and does what it says.

I really like the app, it's clean and does what it says. Great! Although the 2 second delay causes problems. We do not have to hover over a link whilst reading what is around the link, then the popup opens and covers your screen hiding everything so you need to close the popup to continue reading the previous webpage. We all do it, but it would be great to have a little control over the popup.

Ever since EzLinkPreview was removed I have been looking for something similar, and this is the closest. It would be nice to see a few changes though. 1. Hovering over a link could show a little icon, i.e. the Hover 'H' logo, so the user can decide if they want to click the icon to open the popup screen. 2. Or a setting of a number of seconds before the popup screen takes over the screen? 3. The popup screen is a little large, is it possible to allow users to resize it according to their requirements? 4. Can the popup be fixed and the user needs to close the popup by clicking the Close button in the top right corner? 5. Points 3 and 4 would allow more than one popup on the screen, allowing the user to assess between the 2 or more popups and how to proceed. Or a popup within the popup? 6. Is it possible to read pdf's in the popup? It would save a lot of time to not have to download each pdf and wait for your pdf reader to open it.

As said, I have looked at many apps trying to do the same. Hover does what I need so far, and it would be great to see a few updates. Many thanks for your work!
