Image Zoom+ | Hover Zoom & Photo Previewer

Description

Instantly preview full-resolution images on hover. Scroll to zoom, resolve srcset & lazy sources automatically. Instant full resolution image and video previews right on hover. Zoom and pan with your mouse, auto resolve high resolution sources, and peek at media without opening new tabs. If you are looking for a modern, lightweight, and privacy focused alternative to legacy extensions like Hover Zoom or Imagus, this is the tool for you. Built entirely on Chrome's Manifest V3 with lightweight, local scripts. KEY FEATURES - Hover Previews: Move your cursor over any image, thumbnail, or link on sites like Reddit, Amazon, Twitter, or Wikipedia to view the original full size media in a sleek popup overlay. - Drag to resize & Lock Aspect Ratio: Adjust the preview overlay dynamically by clicking and dragging any of its corners or borders. The window size automatically locks itself in proportion to the aspect ratio of the loaded media. - Auto upscaling: Automatically handles tiny low res assets (smaller than 400x300 pixels) by upscaling them using clear CSS properties to fit a comfortable preview layout, preventing pixelation. - Real time stats counter: Track your browsing metrics directly in the popup interface. Shows a real time counter of total previews zoomed today and all time. - Preload countdown visuals: When using a custom open delay, a non intrusive countdown toast ("Opening in X.Xs") displays on the page, helping you prevent accidental popups when scrolling over grids. - Drag & Position (Pinning): Tap the "P" hotkey or click the Pin button on the overlay to lock it in place. Once pinned, click and drag the top bar to move the preview anywhere on your screen. - Scroll to Zoom: Zoom in or out (from 0.5x up to 10x) by scrolling your mouse wheel while hovering over the overlay. - Drag to Pan: Easily navigate extra-large images by clicking and dragging inside the preview window. - Metadata HUD Bar: View real time media details such as exact image dimensions, file type, file size, and the host domain. - Action Bar & Hotkeys: Use the interactive buttons or fast keyboard shortcuts to copy the image URL (C key), copy the image itself, open in a new tab (O key), run a reverse image search on Google Lens, or download (D key). SMART SOURCE PIPELINE The extension does not just scale up thumbnails. It runs an advanced background pipeline to find and load the actual high resolution source: - Automatically strips Google CDN transformation and cropping parameters. - Parses complex responsive srcset and picture tag source alternatives. - Detects lazy loaded images and extracts target attributes. ADVANCED SITE HANDLING - Facebook Stories & Grid Isolation: Special rules target actual story covers and completely skip small uploader avatars (excluding sizes like 32x32, 40x40, 80x80, or 120x120 pixels). It also ignores SVG profile rings and blocks disjoint text comments to prevent accidental popups when scrolling grids. 100% PRIVATE AND WEIGHTLESS - Works locally in your browser. All requests are made directly from your machine. - No remote tracking servers, no tracking analytics, and no accounts required. - Temporary disable key: Hold the X key (customizable) to temporarily disable zoom previews when navigating grids. - Customizable delays: Fine-tune the hover delay and close delay in the settings panel to match your pace. - Custom Blocked Sites & Paths: Easily exclude specific websites from showing previews, or add path specific block rules manually (e.g. blocking subpaths like "/photo/?fbid=" to avoid popups on specific pages). - Skip small images: Auto-ignores tiny icons or emojis smaller than 50x50 pixels. - Styling Options: Choose between a dark theme or light theme, dim the page background behind the overlay, or enable a gorgeous frosted glassmorphic background frosting. Simplify your browsing today. No more clicking, no more endless tabs, just hover to zoom.
