Features & Capabilities

The DuckDuckGo Maps Chrome extension enhances your DuckDuckGo search experience by adding a permanent 'Maps' tab. Unlike the default behavior where the maps button appears only sporadically, this extension ensures you always have quick access to mapping services.

Users can customize the add-on to direct searches either to Google Maps or OpenStreetMap, depending on their preference. This facilitates seamless location discovery and navigation directly from DuckDuckGo. Please note, the extension is independent and not affiliated with DuckDuckGo's official projects.

Unfortunately it doesn't work. Maps is nowhere to be found, so I am guessing that DuckDuckGo made some changes on their end.

Is DuckDuckGo Maps 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.

DuckDuckGo Maps requires a few sensitive permissions. 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.

DuckDuckGo Maps has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
