xkcd Hover Text is a free Chrome add-on developed by Zachary Yaro. This add-on is specifically designed for fans of the popular webcomic xkcd, allowing them to easily access the hover text associated with each comic. With xkcd Hover Text, users no longer need to hover over each comic to reveal the hidden text. Instead, the add-on displays the hover text either above or below the image, providing a convenient and time-saving feature.

The latest update, version 2.0, brings various improvements and enhancements to the add-on. Under-the-hood clean-up ensures a smoother user experience, while the options page has been redesigned for better usability. Additionally, the options now sync between different computers, allowing users to customize their xkcd Hover Text settings across devices.

Previous updates, such as version 1.6, have introduced the ability to change the position, background, and font size of the hover text. Users can also choose to display the hover text only when they mouseover, providing flexibility and personalization options.

xkcd Hover Text is a must-have add-on for xkcd enthusiasts, making it easier than ever to enjoy the hidden humor and additional context provided by the hover text.
