User Reviews

At first glance, it’s a good plugin, nice interface and icon, but: 1) The plugin displays font information in a floating window, ok, but how do I select and copy a complex long font name? (-1) 2) Even on my productive laptop there are freezes (-1). We need to add the ability to call the plugin from the standard mouse context menu

Is Font Detector 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.

Font Detector 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.

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