User reviews

The Google Analytics Debugger Firefox add-on generally works well for debugging Google Analytics tracking, mirroring the Chrome extension's functionality. However, several users report that it does not display any output in console logs and thus does not work reliably for them. The user interface is minimal, primarily indicated by an icon, and some users wish for more granular control such as per-page activation rather than global scope.

Pros

Works well and functions as expected for debugging Google Analytics.
Simple and effective tool that mirrors the Chrome extension functionality.
Recognizes Google Analytics tracking correctly.

Cons

Does not work properly for some users, with no output in console logs reported multiple times.
Limited user interface feedback beyond the icon indicator.
Functionality is for global scope rather than per page, which some users find limiting.

Extension safety

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.

Google Analytics Debugger requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

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 Browser Add-ons, 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.

Google Analytics Debugger has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
