Michael Hwang (ID: 000000b06c8400b9) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/19/2022 My default search is DuckDuckGo so there is no easy way to search Google Maps for an address. Especially when browsing real estate websites. This extension solves the problem perfectly. It is simple, doesn't require any permissions and does exactly what is needed. Thank you to the development team!

Peter Aba (ID: 000000dfcfb7ae53) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/11/2022 It's great. I also checked the code, for now (1.3) it's really simple and safe. My only complain is that I'd feel safer if there was a link to source code on the extension page, and if it was open source.
