⚠️ Remark
As many other extensions, our chrome extension needs access to the website in order to blend in the ZOOM slider widget and such that the software can increase the font size. We at abilitools see ourselves as supporters of digital accessibility. Thus we guarantee that no data is retrieved ⛔. On the one hand, this would contradict our philosophy of transparency. On the other hand, Google would justiziable delete such an extension from the store. And for that, we put way too much time and energy into creating this solution.
☝ Your feedback
We are very thankful for every piece of feedback from you, when and where ZOOM Premium helps you the most. Maybe we can create even more barrier-free access to the web by your help!

Cool interface, effective zoom. |

Great, but need to customize "site access" for "on specific sites" only which can't be modified now. |

This extension does a great job in most cases. There are some good suggestions in the reviews, I hope the developers are reading them. Specifically, it would be great to have a smaller slider. A feature that would be really helpful would be the ability to change the font color to black (for those sites that think it's cool to use grey) and adjust the background color so that the contrast in improved. |

Finally, an extension that can actually make fonts very big. |

The keys interfere with my work flow causing text to increase when it's not wanted. We need the ability to select new or disable existing key board acceleration combinations. |
