Hover-to-zoom on Medium
Full-size images and diagrams in Medium articles, on hover. Ultra Zoom enlarges Medium images the instant you hover — no clicks, no tabs, no tracking. Medium hover zoom is part of the free tier.
What you get on Medium
- Removes Medium’s CDN resize segment to fetch the original upload
- Works on article bodies, profile headers, and publication feeds
- Especially useful for screenshots, charts, and code images
Why it helps on Medium
Medium renders inline images at the column width of the article, which makes any screenshot of code or a dashboard unreadable without clicking into the lightbox. Ultra Zoom fetches the author’s original upload on hover, so you can read the diagram in place and keep scrolling.
