Does not work at all even though it is synced to my account. All is does is launch the WhatsApp web version (no different than a bookmark). Deleted.

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.
Notifier for WhatsApp Web requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
