User Reviews

The Google Search Firefox add-on is praised for its convenience and effectiveness in quickly searching with Google directly from the context menu. Users appreciate its accuracy and usefulness especially when other search engines fall short. However, some users report the add-on does not work for them, and there are requests to improve the add-on by including more search engines, enhancing the icon and name for better discoverability, and making it available on mobile Firefox.

Looks good. Works well. I request you to improve the addon. First, change the icon of the addon. Second, change the name of the addon as this doesnt come up in the searches. Use omnibox and context menu in the title so that it comes up in the searches. Use keywords related to Duckduckgo addon so that it comes up in searches related to it. Third, dont limit to google, add other search engines like google, DDG (I dont use DDG addon), brave search, bing, ecosia, startpage, chat gpt, perplexity and more. Consider promoting it. And shift it to top of the context menu for easy visibility. Make this mobile firefox too. Dont use dirty URL but clean URL (for reference see clearURL addon). Thanks.

Is Google Search 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 Search 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.

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