Some of you might be thinking, why we need this Extension if we could use the wheel of mouse for that purpose. So, let me explain you some of the merits of it which are written below:
- This is a great thing for those who do a lot of works using laptops only as there is no such wheel of mouse.
- Again for those having mouse, it still seems complex work as it doesn’t work as smoothly as when it was brought down new.
