In-depth safety analysis
This extension requests three permissions: storage, userScripts, and notifications. Storage lets it save your settings locally. The userScripts permission allows it to inject code into web pages you visit, which is necessary to detect mouse gestures and perform actions like navigation or tab management. Notifications let it show brief alerts. For a mouse gesture tool, this permission set is typical and expected, as it must observe your mouse movements across all sites to function.
Mouse gesture extensions belong to a category that inherently has broad access to page content. A careful user should be aware that any extension with the ability to run scripts on every page could, in theory, read or modify sensitive information. General safety practices apply: prefer extensions from publishers with a clear identity and track record, check that the code is open-source if possible, and review user feedback for red flags.
In this case, the fact sheet shows the strongest dimension is Maintenance & Ownership, indicating the extension is actively maintained and its ownership appears stable. The weakest dimension is Publisher & Identity, which suggests the developer’s identity is not strongly verified or well-known. This doesn’t imply wrongdoing, but it means users have less external assurance about who is behind the extension, making it wise to weigh that against the otherwise solid technical and community signals.
AI-assisted analysis of the documented signals above (permissions, store data, privacy practices) — explains what they mean and the risks typical for this category. Not a hands-on test.
