Features & Capabilities

Zero-knowledge encrypted file sharing — your files are encrypted in the browser before they ever leave your device. The server never sees your data.

CORE FEATURES

Screenshot & Area Capture — Capture the visible tab or select a specific region of any page. Screenshots are encrypted and uploaded instantly.
Page Media Scanner — Scan any webpage for images, videos, and media files. Select what you want and upload in one click.
Right-Click Sharing — Right-click any image, link, selected text, or page to share it securely through FileShot.
Password Protection — Add an optional password for an additional layer of encryption on any upload.
Upload History — All your uploads are saved locally in the extension. Copy links, view details, or delete entries anytime.

TOOLS BUILT IN

PDF Viewer/Editor, Image Converter, Video Downloader, media tools, and more — all accessible from the extension toolbar.

PRIVACY & PERMISSIONS

FileShot is privacy-first. No tracking, no analytics, no ads. All encryption happens locally in your browser. The server stores only encrypted blobs and never has access to your keys or file contents.

Is FileShot - Secure File Sharing 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.

FileShot - Secure File Sharing 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.

FileShot - Secure File Sharing may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
