User reviews

Most users find the extension useful, simple, and effective at opening tabs in incognito mode, appreciating its free availability. However, multiple users mention intrusive ads on the setup screen and recent shortcut bugs introduced in version 3.0.0.

doesnt work

Loss of two stars because they serve ads on their configuration screen, one of which ALMOST had me install crapware from some vendor after the ad took up the whole screen and appeared to be part of the setup for the extension. I'd rather pay you than be subjected to the ads.

Extension safety

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 for Google Chrome™ does not require any sensitive permissions.
