Features & Capabilities

Whatever your reasons for this – maintain a comfortable auto-window-tiling arrangement, keep your Mac's App Exposé view manageable, et cetera – it's here for you.

Prioritizes minimizing the least-recently-focused minimizable windows. Auto Minimize keeps track of focus-change times and remembers them between browser restarts. For convenience, if you are a Winger user, upon installation Auto Minimize will make a one-time request from Winger for existing focus-change time data so that Auto Minimize can hit the ground running.

Permissions

Access recently closed tabs — Refers to sessions access, to save and remember window focus-change times across browser sessions. Despite the official description of this permission, Auto Minimize does not need to – and does not – access or affect tabs in any way.

Is Auto Minimize 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.

Auto Minimize does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

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.

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