Review by Ramouz
Rated 1 out of 5
by Ramouz, 5 years agoI had high hopes for this but in its current state, I rarely use it (and just now disabled it). The limit is absurd (hardly any width).
Firefox needs a split screen mode like Vivaldi, where tabs can be split into 2/3/4 screens. Let's start with 2 for now but allow us to remain in our session and not log us out. Let the page not reload just for opening it in a split view. This actually signs you out of the website (the one in the side view). It reloads the tab when you add it to the side view. It's all over the place when it comes to websites where you're signed in.
It's really a very bad implementation and it's clear that care is not given to this add-on, which is unfortunate.
Allow us to split screen an .html file (that I open from my Desktop, which opens in Firefox) with a on-the-Internet tab.
I really want a real split screen add-on, one that also would let us resize to our heart's content and not be limited as we are now. One that displays the tab without reloading, without signing us out, without a new cookie or whatnot. Look at Vivaldi's Page Tiling and imitate that, that's all!
Edit: Use Tile Tab add-on, it's good enough for now but not like Vivaldi's and Edge's implementation, which are the best.
Edit 2 Sept 2022: This broke Asana and it would get stuck at the Download Asana App rather than log me in to the task view.
Edit: July 2024: I tried it again for 2 months but is still breaks websites and also Temu remains in mobile mode. I couldn't figure it out until I recalled that this is active. Deactivated right away. What a buggy mess! Made by Mozilla themselves too lol. Embarrassing.

- Rated 4 out of 5by kuman, 10 days agovery useful extension for me, it works perfectly as I want it to be. one thing I dislike is that somehow this extension always make pinterest shows in mobile mode and I have to disable this extension so my pinterest works normally. hopefully dev will fix it soon.

- Rated 5 out of 5by 狄血城, a month agoThis is exactly what I need, and now I use this extension almost every day. I have a small suggestion: I need the functionality to reopen the SideView content in a new tab, or the ability to copy the current SideView content URL. Thank you for your contribution.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Nhân Trí, a month agoa bit of a letdown since horizontal width can't be extended that much as the images
but at least its embedded into the search bar so can't complain - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16091286, a month ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Bobby, 2 months agoIt works, but it's basic.
I wish it had fully featured side by side panels like in other modern browsers.
This basic implementation locks in the website in the sideview, which means you can only navigate by the items in the webpage. If you want another website in the sideview, you have to visit it in a regular tab and then click 'view in side view'.
A big negative for me is that your extensions do not work in the side view. - Rated 5 out of 5by Batu, 2 months ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Jugami, 3 months agoNice extension, but for some reason when I use it, Pinterest only opens in the browser (not in the sidebar) in the mobile version and not the desktop version
