User reviews

Monosnap is praised for its convenience and cross-platform compatibility, serving well for screenshots, annotations, and local file editing. Users appreciate its utility for office and design tasks. However, multiple users report instability, occasional failure of capture functions, unclear screenshot saving paths, and account settings issues on Linux. Video capture without audio is noted. Overall, it is regarded as a useful tool but has room for improvement in stability and feature functionality.

  • Works well on multiple platforms including Chromebook, desktop PC, Ubuntu/Linux.

Excellent extension for chromebook, but also for desktop PC. In addition to capturing from the web, the tool allows you to open a file from disk and work with it. Thanks to the developers.

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.

Monosnap requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. 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 Chrome extension.

Monosnap has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
