Install the PinReview browser extension

The extension is the alternative to the snippet. Use it when you can't add code to the site, such as a client's live site, a staging environment behind change control, or a page you don't own.

To install

• Open your project and go to Install

• Under "Option 2 — Get the browser extension — no code required", click the button to open the Chrome Web Store

• Add the extension, then sign in with your PinReview account

Using it

First add the site's URL to your project under Websites & Files. The extension only works on sites that belong to one of your projects. Then visit the site, open the extension, pick the project and click Show feedback on this page. You pin feedback exactly as you would with the widget, and it captures the same screenshot, element selector, browser details and console errors.

Snippet or extension, which should I use?

Use the snippet when you control the site. Your team sees the widget there automatically while logged in. Use the extension for sites you can't add code to.

Clients and other guests use a share link. The link asks them to install the free extension once, then opens your site with feedback switched on. Guests don't need an account.
