This is probably one of the better magnifying glasses to use on the the web especially on a Chromebook. However it would be so much easier to use if the mouse pointer was at the end or around end of the circle. Having it in the middle, makes it difficult to direct and see where your pointing it off too and makes it difficult to "steer". Also usually we read paragraphs, and their in rectangular form, so changing the magnifier to a rectangle or square would be so much more convenient for reading purposes.

Does what is expected in a simple way, but I wish I could find something that would bring more clarity to the magnified text.
