User reviews
Users find the 'Search by Image' Edge add-on highly effective, stable, and useful, praising its multiple search engine support and free availability. It is considered a good replacement for other reverse image extensions. However, users desire a feature to search local images directly, report some inaccuracies with specific services like TinEye, and note occasional permission-related issues. Despite its strengths, the extension appears to have a smaller user base than expected.
