Review by Ejaz Rasool
Rated 5 out of 5
by Ejaz Rasool, 6 years agoSuch a great extension. Very sane defaults. Can't imagine browsing internet without it.
A few opportunities of improvement are there though.
- Biggest of them would be able to use vimium for going to next/previous tab before the page has loaded completely. It looks like this extension requires a completely loaded page to function.
- Also to go to page's first input (gi), the first input needs to be visible. So on a scrolled down page, user needs to use (gg) first. Small annoyance
- Some sites like to autofocus one of their text fields on load. An option to disable that would be very useful.

posted 6 years agoEjaz, thanks for the thoughtful review. Note that there is an option in Vimium's Options page called "Don't let pages steal the focus on load" (which is not on by default).

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17735019, 7 months agoThis extension is a must. I always use it on the PC but couldn't install it on Android until recently on Android Beta; this made me so happy. I use a tablet and a bluetooth keyboard.
