Hover Zoom: Enlarge Images with Mouseover

A browser extension that enlarges images when you hover over thumbnails, saving time by providing quick previews on popular sites like Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Amazon, and Reddit.

What is Hover Zoom?

Hover Zoom is a browser extension available for Chrome, Firefox, and Opera that allows users to enlarge thumbnails and images on web pages simply by hovering their mouse cursor over them. When the mouse cursor hovers over an image, Hover Zoom pops up a zoomed-in version of that image so the user can view it in more detail without having to actively click on the thumbnail to open it.

The extension works on many popular sites like Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Amazon, Reddit, and more. By providing an instant preview of images while browsing, Hover Zoom can save users time and effort compared to opening images in new tabs or windows. It provides a seamless way to get a closer look without disrupting your web browsing flow.

In addition to simply enlarging thumbnails, Hover Zoom also shows animated GIFs and videos right on the page when hovered over. There are also options to adjust animation speeds, image sizes, and other preferences. An optional caption can show more context about the image.

Overall, Hover Zoom aims to boost productivity during web browsing by letting users quickly see more detail and context for images, GIFs, and videos without having to actively click or navigate to view them. Its capabilities to zoom on many major sites make it a popular choice for those looking to save time and gain more insight from thumbnails.
