Reputation

Users appreciate the seamless history capture and cross-device sync, especially for productivity in browsing. Some criticize the freemium model pushing Pro upgrades for core features like unlimited history. Closed-source nature raises privacy concerns among security-focused users, as noted in comparisons to open alternatives. Active updates keep it relevant in 2026.
