This is quite a useful tool that allows you to zoom in on any image on the browser by hovering your mouse over it. The enlarged image can be viewed clearly on a simple pop-up window. This will come especially handy on sites like Reddit and Facebook that use small thumbnails for large images.

Hover Zoom will enlarge the thumbnail image to its full size and ensure that it still fits into the browser window. Moreover, the extension displays an image in its original resolution and even supports animated formats like GIF and GIFV. You can also use Hover Zoom to scroll through a list of images on photo-based platforms like Imgur without actually opening the site.

This isn’t all: momentum also shows the bookmarks bar on the new tab and allows you to set a daily goal.

It allows you to skip those pesky YouTube ads and automatically makes the player go to the larger theater mode whenever you watch a video. Additionally, the extension provides the option for a smaller picture-in-picture display for those who need it and lets users automatically default to the highest quality playback for any video.

You can even use Enhancer for YouTube to modify YouTube’s colors and theme, edit the default playback speed, and manage your volume with your mouse wheel. Pretty neat, huh?
