User Reviews

The idea is cool and I'd love to use it. But after installing my memory usage slowly ramped up until the browser would become super laggy. Clicking around rapidly and switching tabs clogged it up extremely fast. I managed to get the RAM usage up to 19GB withing a minute. After uninstalling this issue went away.

Is Amplecap Beta Safe?

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.

Amplecap Beta requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Amplecap Beta is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
