User reviews

MetaMask for Edge is appreciated for enabling easy cryptocurrency transactions, but multiple users report significant issues such as the extension opening unwanted tabs on startup, not opening correctly on Edge, lacking multi-seed phrase import, and removing wallets/accounts unexpectedly. These problems cause frustration and inconvenience, with some users unable to access their funds or manage multiple wallets effectively. While the extension can be good when functioning properly, inconsistent performance and lack of responsive support undermine the overall experience for Edge users.
Pros
  • MetaMask provides an easy and fast way to send cryptocurrency.
  • The extension generally functions well and users find it good when working properly.
Cons
  • The extension frequently opens a new tab on browser start, which is annoying to users.
  • MetaMask has issues with opening correctly or not opening at all on Microsoft Edge.
  • Importing multiple seed phrases is not supported, causing inconvenience for users managing multiple wallets.
  • Users report problems with confirming their secret phrase during setup, leading to inability to access wallets.
  • The extension sometimes removes accounts or transaction history unexpectedly, causing loss of access to crypto holdings.
