About

✨ Replace dragging with double clicking! ✨

Instead of dragging your mouse on a piece of text to select it, double click it instead. Our extension supercharges your double-click to intelligently select complete text patterns in one action!

We support selecting these text patterns out-of-the-box:
- Email addresses - ex. [email protected]
- Complete URLs - ex. https://www.example.com/path?query=value
- File paths - ex. /usr/local/bin or C:\Program Files\App
- UUIDs - ex. 123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000

We care about your privacy:
- All processing happens locally in your browser - your data never leaves your device.
- Also fully open source: https://github.com/Ethan0104/SmartSelect

Customizable:
- Enable only the patterns you need through our simple settings panel.

Double-click smartly. Save time. Be productive.
