- Rated 1 out of 5by Hulio, 8 days agoUninstalled.
"You've reached your daily limit of 10 link previews. Upgrade to PRO to get unlimited previews and more features"Developer response
posted 7 days agoHi Hulio,
Thanks for your feedback. The daily limit of 10 link previews helps us manage resources.
Upgrading to the PRO version gives you unlimited previews and extra features. - Rated 3 out of 5by AJ, 15 days agoGreat add-on, but unfortunately caps daily usage unless you upgrade to PRO.
Locking premium features behind a paywall is one thing but locking basic features behind them when they weren't locked in previous versions of the extension is unfortunate. - Rated 1 out of 5by Mario, 19 days agoThis extension was good when is released, now is totally trash, always when I open any links i got at the bottom right some AI suggestion, I don't want use AI why is this extension forced you to do that ?

posted 18 days agoHi Marko, you can disable AI features in the settings if you don't want to use them. If you have any other problems or questions feel free to contact us at casca.help.space@gmail.com - Rated 3 out of 5by Yandong, 25 days agoTwo problems:
1. If you use it to preview an online PDF document and click the URL, it will open Google instead of the PDF.
2. Pages previewed by MaxFocus will not go into browser history, please provide an option to make it also appear in browser history.Developer response
posted 18 days agoHi Yandong, thank you for the feedback and sorry for the inconvenience. We'll make these fixes in the next releases. - Rated 3 out of 5by Reality changer, a month agoLimited time of usage without upgrade?
I thought this upgrade ONLY for use AI Summaries or some customizations?
If so, it's useless. :/ - Rated 5 out of 5by Mrigank 🔷, a month ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by daniboi, a month agoJust discovered via article in ComputerWorld.
Wish i had heard of it before!
Kudos!
Anyone get it to work on Android? - Rated 5 out of 5by A:uxer, a month agoamazing app! suggestion: add "drag" the link to trigger it. and I found some not perfect
1.cant login github inside popup in discord.
2. in some page like www.ithome.com, the page will change when trigger, is it possible to keep the page?
updated:
thanks your quickly updated and response. And I thought you should add a clear NOTICED that preview function is also need to buy or subscribe, not only the settings label with "PRO". Yeah, I hope add free/lifetime version without AI or some advanced functions.Developer response
posted a month agoThank you! The 'drag' feature is now available.
1. You can enable third-party cookies (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/third-party-cookies-firefox-tracking-protection) to be able to login inside popup, but we don't recommend this as it may allow other websites to track you
2. Apologies for this issue. We'll look into it and see what can be done - Rated 5 out of 5by pnhan, a month agoWow, great ideas and it's works seamlessly!!
Just thought about that and tried a search then found it!!
So magical!
And it's also a bit surprising for me why someone hasn't done it sooner with an idea like this..
I'm so lucky I came across it when I was just thinking about it x) - Rated 4 out of 5by vuuuc, a month agoGood addon, only two things that annoy me badly.
1. The background blur when you hover over the module. I would love to be able to turn that off. It is so distracting. Also it makes every dark page brighter, which negates darkmodes.
2. Not sure what this AI input field is for. It feels very much out of place and forced into this addon. Just to sell AI. It would be a much cleaner functionality without it. It also makes it feel super sketchy. Reminds me of the crypto times where crypto was put in everything and most of it turned out to be scams. It has the same feel to it.Developer response
posted a month agoThanks for your feedback! We're glad you like the addon overall.
In version 0.3.2, you can now disable the background blur and dimming in the settings. We've also redesigned the popup to make the AI features less distracting. - Rated 3 out of 5by aquarius, 2 months agoWorks nicely but unfortunately phones home (maxfocus.us) each time it is used. I've tried blocking the home server system-wide, MaxFocus extension still works but delivers an incorrect rendering. IMO phoning home appears as necessary for technical reasons (fine tuning previewed page rendering from their servers rather than with the extension itself) rather than led by deliberate privacy intrusion, yet the fact remains : MaxFocus servers know every site the user visits when the extension is used.
MaxFocus Privacy Policy at https://maxfoc.us/privacy-policy/ is clear.Developer response
posted 2 months agoHello!
For some websites to work correctly, we use a link unshortening service, as these links do not redirect in an iframe. Due to this, our extension covers the maximum supported websites and links. We do not proxy or render content on the server side, as it is not necessary or technically possible due to the website's internal protection (CSRF tokens, http-only cookies).
As our Privacy Policy states, we do not store any information about the websites the user visits. - Rated 5 out of 5by marcosteam, 2 months ago

Developer response

Developer response

We've added a new feature called "Sticky Popup" in version 0.1.5. Just enable this option, drag the window to your preferred location, and it'll remember its position for future use! - Rated 5 out of 5by mortyobnoxious, 3 months agoCan you add:
- option to open in reader mode all the time
- dark mode for reader mode
- option to disable blur on the page
- popup should remember it's position and place when user drag it somewhere.
- option to hide right pane (close button, settings button etc.)Developer response
posted 3 months agoThank you for your feedback! We'll implement them in our upcoming releases.
To disable the blur you can turn "Power saving mode" on in the extension preferences :)

- Rated 5 out of 5by A Very Bad Lady Kitten, 3 months agoVery useful, looks good and it's surprisingly not janky at all! Works as well as a built-in browser feature, really
Also has just one small page of (good) options&settings accessible by just clicking on the add-on icon. Which I thought was a plus--
