About

Do annoying link preview bubbles annoy you when they pop up in Google Docs and Sheets? This extension stops hover preview bubbles from showing up when you hover over a link. It's lightweight and clean, and it simply suppresses the popup so you can write, edit, or read without interruption.

Why do it?

Keep your attention when using Google Docs — no more distraction from link previews.

It is light and safe — it only impacts Docs and does not need further permissions.

Simple one-click toggle to enable or disable anytime.

If you are writing reports, collaborating with colleagues, or editing notes, this extension makes you work with Google Docs without interruptions.
