User Reviews
Thanks, Tacu, for this incredibly handy addon! It has been extremely useful for my PHP development. When combined with the SFTP addon, which automatically updates files on the FTP after each save, the combination works flawlessly. I primarily use it for testing .php scripts or while developing an app live, without the need to manually refresh the website or page. This addon has truly streamlined my workflow!

Is browser-tab-reloader 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.
browser-tab-reloader requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
