- Rated 1 out of 5by NotHappy108, 3 years agoI created an account to let you know this new version is terrible - 4.1.0.
Specifically, deleting images doesn't work like 3.2. Deleting text doesn't work like 3.2... Essentially nothing works like 3.2.
I've reverted back to the old version 3.2. Keep up the good work and keep what works - working. Appreciated.Developer response
posted 3 years agoWe have just released 4.2.0 which has "Click To Delete" similar to 3.2.0. Please email support@printfriendly.com if you have any other concerns or difficulties with the latest version. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17265312, 3 years agoNew version is AWFUL! Is there a way to go back to old version? The old version was one of my favorite apps.

Really anoying!

- Rated 1 out of 5by Nick R, 4 years agoUPDATE: Now no longer loads images, and changes the page automatically based on it's own rules etc instead of just giving you the options to edit the page to be printed to match your requirements. No longer helpful really, standard print diaglog is just as usefull and painful to use :( luckily I can revert to version 3.2 and disable updates :)
INITIAL REVIEW: Works fantastically! Cleans up a page perfectly for pdf and allows you to remove page elements to finalise - and does it without asking for any permissions. - Rated 1 out of 5by cooperka, 4 years agoThis shady extension sends all your data to someone else's server, AND doesn't even work very well. Pages look ugly and are missing information when printed.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Lukeomatik, 4 years agoThis addon needs to offload the actual work of generating the PDF page on a external server. Useless (and potentially harmful). Do not install and use this addon.
- Rated 1 out of 5by MousaThe14, 4 years agoIt had one job and for the two pages I attempted to print to pdf it logged out of one and couldn't produce a page for another. Can't believe I might have to go back to Chrome just to print to pdf.

- Rated 1 out of 5by sparkymom, 5 years agoOnly works about 25% of the time. It either shows a blank page, only part of the page, or it freezes.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16024813, 5 years agoDoesn't work, keeps showing "Print technology timed-out while trying to connect to this page."
- Rated 1 out of 5by Nenad Cuturic, 5 years agoOther reviewer have already in detail explained the privacy issue so read those instead.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Stump, 5 years agoDoesn't display/format the whole page. Only prints the outer Web page frame, with next to no content. This has happened with multiple different pages on multiple Web sites, every time I try to use it. Completely useless.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15225127, 6 years agoif it's a pw protected website & I'm logged in to the site, it refuses to work anyway
Developer response
posted 6 years agoPlease download the FF extension available directly from our website, it works on Password Protected pages. The firefox store doesn't allow us to have the extension work on PW pages.

Please update your review. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15218988, 6 years agoI (probably unfairly) rated this at 1/5 stars... I am upset that their extension information page did not SAY ANYTHING about it using their website to accomplish this task. It may work well, I don't know. BUT privacy is a prime concern for me, and they didn't even consider I would take that into account in making my choice to use their extension.
EDIT: They've responded to the above review (see below). Unless I'm reading their response incorrectly, they seem not to have even understood that my problem was with their withholding of the information that they were sending my webpage to their own site for processing, rather than with the function of the extension itself. It seems like a cognitive disconnect on their part. Or they just didn't actually read it. Still 1/5 stars.Developer response
posted 6 years agoThis is a limitation placed by the FireFox store. If you use the chrome extension, OR the FireFox extension directly from our site, it will work in the browser. https://www.printfriendly.com/extensions
Please give a try and update your review. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15214320, 6 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15164297, 6 years agoAbsolute garbage! When you click the print button it redirects you to a new site and closes out your page. Anything you have on it will be lost and the information wont transfer. Don't waste you time and your work. As other reviewers have said this extension does not work for any secure pages. I got rid of this crap and installed Print to PDF instead. Works much better.

posted 6 years agoThis is a limitation of the FireFox store extension. They won't allow Client-Side. To get a better experience, download the extension directly from our website. https://www.printfriendly.com/extensions/firefox - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14970347, 6 years agoThis add-on sends your page URI to a third-party server, which in turn retrieves it in hopes of getting the same output as you do in your browser. Obviously, any page that requires any sort of authentication will be broken. That is not to mention that you probably won't want your pages sent anywhere for a job which can perfectly be done locally. Probably works for some static public websites if you disregard privacy, useless for anything else. Use a local adblocker to block ads and remove clutter.
