User Reviews

It seems to me that most functions no longer work (presumably as a result of changes by Google). Postscript: thanks, maybe I'm unlucky in finding so much of what I'd like not working. Other users might have different wish lists, and find the extension mostly working.

Is Google Search UI Chooser 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 UI Chooser requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
