User reviews

Users appreciate addy.io for its privacy features, ease of managing email aliases, and excellent developer support. While it may require some initial adjustment, it proves highly user-friendly thereafter. The extension is praised for good privacy practices and competitive pricing. However, users note the lack of automatic theming to match system light/dark modes, the need to manually generate API keys, and a desire for cosmetic and functional enhancements.

Pros

Allows easy creation and management of email aliases for privacy.
User-friendly interface once initial learning curve is overcome.
Developer provides quick and helpful support.
Supports account creation on alternative servers with more free features.
Good privacy-respecting measures and reasonable pricing.

Cons

Extension does not automatically switch between light and dark themes according to system settings.
Requires manual API key generation instead of OAuth login.
Needs cosmetic improvements and additional functionality.

Очень хороший add‑on для приватности, удобно создавать псевдонимы электронной почты, подписывать (автоматически или вручную) и быстро находить их. Можно завести аккаунт на Hostux.App, где больше бесплатных возможностей, чем на официальном сервере. Например, можно написать мне на e‑mail 📧 → f1795f5d-6a72-4f83-9a35-99428d4554d5@Hostux.App

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

addy.io (AnonAddy) - Anonymous Email Forwarding does not require any sensitive permissions.
