Is Google Forms Auto Filler Safe? — Extension Safety Profile

This extension can read and modify data on Google Docs pages (docs.google.com) and access the currently active tab when you invoke it. The activeTab permission is limited to tabs you actively click the extension on, which means it cannot silently read all your browsing. The storage permission lets it save settings locally. For a productivity tool that fills Google Forms, needing access to Google Docs pages is expected, though the scope is narrower than many similar tools that request broader host permissions.

Productivity extensions that interact with web forms often need to read and insert data into page fields. A careful user should be aware that any extension with this access could technically see information entered on those pages while active. It is wise to review what data you allow such tools to handle, especially on sensitive documents, and to only install extensions from sources you trust.

Based on the fact sheet, the strongest dimension is Permissions & Access, indicating the requested permissions are minimal and well-scoped for its function. The weakest dimension is Maintenance & Ownership, which suggests concerns about how recently or consistently the extension is updated, or the transparency of its publisher. This combination means the extension itself asks for appropriate access, but users should consider whether it is actively maintained before relying on it long-term.
