User Reviews

Users generally praise FoxClocks for global time displays and quick city searches, making it useful for coordinating with people worldwide. However, multiple reviews flag outdated time zone data and DST handling, leading to inaccuracies. A common complaint is the lack of a clear way to contact the developer and concerns about privacy. Some users dislike the bottom UI strip and absence of font-size controls. A few also note branding/flag inconsistencies. Overall, it’s helpful but needs timely updates and clearer support options.

Pros

Global/world clock display for many cities and countries.
City and country search makes locating times quick.
Very useful for coordinating with family and colleagues worldwide.
Flexible and convenient to use (multiple locations and quick lookups).
Recovery and continued operation after issues, with appreciation for the developers.

Cons

Outdated time zone data and daylight saving updates causing inaccuracies.
Lack of an easy way to contact the developer or access support.
Perceived privacy concerns about data collection/sales.
UI/UX complaints: bottom information strip obscuring page content and no font-size control.
Issues with flags/branding (inaccurate or non-inclusive country flags) and related localization.

This is a very good extension for checking timezones around the world, and this is actually perfect for a browser like Firefox that needs these extensions for your local time. 5 Stars.

Is FoxClocks 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.

FoxClocks 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.
