User Reviews

Users praise Black Menu for Google for quick access to Google services in Firefox, calling it practical and a time-saver, with frequent updates. However, several reviews cite UI stability issues: the toolbar icon/badge often disappears and the menu may fail to appear after updates. Updates that redesign the extension have also disrupted workflows for some users. Overall, it’s highly valued when it works, but UI visibility and update-related regressions are recurring concerns.
Pros
  • Provides quick access to Google services directly from Firefox, boosting productivity.
  • Very practical and useful, described as a must-have by many users.
  • Acts as a time-saver and helps with quick calendar overviews/edits.
  • Stable and well-maintained with frequent updates.
Cons
  • Toolbar icon/badge is frequently missing or not visible, making the extension hard to access.
  • Menu does not consistently appear in the toolbar after updates, hindering use.
  • Recent updates redesigned the extension and disrupted the workflow for some users.

I'm giving it 5, even though a significant piece of functionality is broken. This app opens up HUGE vistas of the Google ecosystem to end users. Theoretically, it should allow you instant, and easy access to your Google account(s). It supports multiple accounts, which is terrific. The one downside is that the Gmail applet thing doesn't show any mail. I have zero doubt it's because Google once again screwed around with the API and access, but that part is broken for now. Hopefully Jeurissen will be able to correct that problem soon, so it's fully functional again.

Last update redesigned the extension and completely destroyed the workflow. This redesign was unnecessary.

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.

Black Menu for Google™ requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
