In-depth safety analysis

This extension can read and modify content on the active tab when you click its button, store settings locally, and inject a small script to manage its functionality. It also has host access to inoreader.com, which allows it to communicate with your Inoreader account for syncing feeds and saved articles. For an RSS reader that offers a browser button to subscribe to feeds or save pages, this permission scope is normal and expected.

RSS feed readers generally handle your reading habits and subscribed feeds, so a careful user should review the privacy policy to understand what data the service collects and how it is used. The developer states it collects personally identifiable and authentication information, which is typical for an account-based syncing service. As with any extension that interacts with web content, it is wise to ensure you install it from the official store listing and keep it updated.

This extension scores highly on maintenance and data privacy, indicating it is actively updated and has clear data practices. The weakest area is publisher identity, which suggests there is less publicly available verification of the company behind it, though this is not uncommon for smaller or independent developers.

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.
