it does work in fact pretty good so far devs on. but do wish we could resize it when it shows the preview besides that really good 5 star for effort.

this is the best damn extension for hovering your mouse over any link and having a window pop u[p showing you what inside the link and it even disappears when you move pointer away. you can even scroll in the preview without creating a new tab. Great work devs. i just wish this was on android
