Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

This extension requires permissions to inject a piece of code in all of the pages you visit. If that freaks you out, that's ok. Handing over those permissions freaks me out too.

You can choose to install this extension from source (it's very short) to make sure it's not doing anything malicious.

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL TO USING THE INTERNET WITH A LAPTOP THAT YOU DON'T HAVE A MOUSE CONNECTED TO 24/7. Thanks for this, truly. I love chrome, but would have had to switch to firefox....

기존 backspace 기능 그대로 사용가능해지네요 걱정말고 깔고 사용하시길 적극권장합니다.

Just installed this but so far I have no problems with this. I just recently discovered the backspace button didn't work anymore when my Chrome browser updated. But am now back in my glory that I can use the backspace button to go to the previous page. Just like that old saying goes "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"

Works as expected! I was one of those users who used backspace to go back.

Google software engineer Ojan Vafai has indicated that 0.04 percent of page views go back with the backspace key. But Chrome now has more than 1 billion active users, so 0.04 percent could mean 400,000 users. AND I WAS ONE OF THEM.
