User reviews

Extension Manager is praised for effectively organizing and managing multiple Chrome extensions via grouping and rules that auto-enable extensions on specific sites. Users appreciate the ease of toggling extensions and improving browser performance by selectively activating extensions. However, confusion over rule settings and persistent bugs with saving groups and rules are common complaints. Some users desire better group sorting and management features. Additionally, outdated updates and security risks related to JSON parsing have been noted. Overall, it is a highly useful extension but would benefit from clearer documentation, bug fixes, and enhanced security.

Pros

Allows quick sorting and organizing of extensions into groups, improving management.
Supports rules for auto-activating or deactivating extensions on specific websites, saving resources.
Simplifies enabling and disabling extensions with a clear interface and one-click actions.
Supports customization of extension groups and profiles for different use cases.
Helpful for managing many extensions efficiently and reducing browser load.
Provides convenience by turning extensions on/off based on site access, preventing browser freezing.

Cons

Rules system is confusing, especially the difference and behavior of 'Disable when' vs 'Disable Only', leading to unintended disabling.
The extension has bugs such as failure to save changes made to groups or rules, causing settings to revert unexpectedly.
Lacks some advanced features like ordering groups manually, duplicating groups, and better sorting options.
Supports are outdated or slow to update; some users experience issues on newer browsers like Vivaldi.
Export/import features for groups are unreliable, causing loss of data or no effect after import.
Security concerns due to insecure JSON parsing method allowing potential remote code execution vulnerabilities.

Recent reviews

Very promising but the rules options are pretty confusing "Disable when" "Disable Only" I'm trying to keep all extensions on except on a specific domain but using a Disable when rule disables everything always, and disable only does nothing. I'll experiment more but I think this could be clarified a lot.

К сожалению, приложение уже устаревшее и обновляется очень долго. Различные глюки появляются, регулярные выражения в правилах не отрабатывают. Кто посоветует аналог подобного?

It is very useful. I believe the feature needed is the ability to order by group. This feature would help with organizing and searching, making the extension more convenient.

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.

Extension Manager requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. 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 Chrome extension.

Extension Manager has earned a good reputation and can be trusted.
