User reviews
Users find Scan WP Chrome extension effective and accurate at identifying WordPress themes, often outperforming other tools. It aids in gathering website info easily and reliably detects themes, including whether they are free. However, many users note the scanning process is slow and the plugin detection is incomplete or inaccurate. Some experience failures where the extension doesn't work or fails to find any themes or plugins. Additionally, the need to purchase a license without a full demo raises trust concerns. Overall, it's useful but has room for improvement in speed and plugin detection.

- Some users report it does not work or fails to detect themes/plugins at all.
