In-depth safety analysis
The extension requests only activeTab, storage, and contextMenus permissions. activeTab can read the current page after the user clicks the extension or uses a right-click menu item, which fits a QR generator that turns the current page or selected content into a code. storage saves settings locally, and contextMenus adds menu entries. It has no broad host permissions or all-website access, so this scope is minimal and expected for the category.
For QR tools, a careful user should know that QR codes can encode links or text. Previewing the destination before scanning a generated code is standard advice. Developer-declared Chrome privacy practices state data is not sold and not used for unrelated purposes, which supports the high data and privacy score in the fact sheet.
The strongest dimension is Maintenance & Ownership, consistent with a manifest V3 extension and an updated listing. The weakest is Publisher & Identity, suggesting less available documented identity information about the publisher beyond the listed website, though this does not indicate a specific problem.
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.
