Latest version
Version 1.3.0
Released Aug 2, 2026 - 106.67 KBWorks with firefox 142.0 and laterIframe support
Elements inside iframes can now be inspected and recorded. Previously the picker stopped at the frame boundary and could only describe the <iframe> element itself, which ruled out most real checkout flows, since payment fields are almost always framed. Generated code now enters the frame for you:
Playwright — page.frameLocator(...)
Selenium — switchTo().frame(...) / switch_to.default_content() around the action
Cypress — contentDocument traversal
Nested frames compose. A cross-origin frame cannot describe its own <iframe> element, so those are addressed by position and the sidebar flags the locator as approximate.
Fixes
Start Inspecting did nothing when the sidebar was not already open — fixed.
A second browser window silently muted the first window's sidebar — every open sidebar now stays live.
Copying a locator on a non-HTTPS page now works, via a fallback that covers every copy made inside a click.
Each pick rendered the sidebar twice; it now renders once.
A long recording session no longer grows memory without bound.
Unchanged: LocatorLens runs entirely in your browser. No network requests, no telemetry, no account, nothing leaves the machine.Source code released under MIT License
