Features & Capabilities

This add-on opens a new tab in the current browser window, creating a new session inside a Google Container. The extension uses Firefox's multiple containers feature. It creates a new Google container if it doesn't exist, or just uses the existing one if it does.

The add-on also adds a new option to the right click menu whenever text is selected, allowing users to search that text in a new Google container automatically.

Users can change the add-on preferences to choose if they want the containers to switch manually or automatically depending on if the tab is on a Google page or not.

Is Google Container Shortcut 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.

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