User Reviews

This newer version of Imagus doesn't work at all for me on the Firefox folk I installed it on unfortunately. No image preview was every shown over the images I hover my mouse/cursor on. It's so bad that even the several years-old Imagus extension still does the intended job that this new version was supposed to do.

Is Imagus Reborn 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.

Imagus Reborn requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

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.

Imagus Reborn is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
