User Reviews

The 'Incognito This Tab' add-on is praised for enabling users to move tabs into private mode quickly and removing those pages from history. Many find it easy and effective for private browsing. However, several users report that it currently does not work as intended: instead of switching tabs to private mode, it simply closes them. Issues arise particularly when handling multiple windows or switching tabs back and forth. Despite some finding it unnecessary, others highly recommend it when functional.

Pros

Allows moving a tab to private/incognito mode directly.
Removes the moved page from browsing history.
Easy to use and convenient for private browsing.
Works as expected for many users.
Highly recommended by users who find it functional.

Cons

No longer works for some users, just closes the tab instead of moving it to private mode.
Errors occur when switching tabs between normal and incognito mode across multiple windows.
Some users report the addon as completely broken and useless now.
Some users feel the addon is unnecessary since keyboard shortcuts exist for private mode.

Is Incognito This Tab 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.

Incognito This Tab requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

High Allows retrieval of a user’s browsing history, presenting a notable privacy risk.

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.

Incognito This Tab is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
