User Reviews

Users appreciate that the Life Science Dictionary Tool is now compatible with Firefox Quantum and retains its dictionary functionality for known terms. However, many find it less useful because it fails to define unfamiliar words and lacks the handy feature to display definitions only upon pressing a key. Additionally, previous menu options are missing, causing usability issues. The add-on sometimes does not show expected popups after installation, and outdated usage documentation further hinders user experience. Users hope for updates to restore key features and improve usability.
Pros
  • Integration with Firefox Quantum is available now, which users appreciate.
  • Offers dictionary functionality that shows meanings of known terms.
  • User experience is satisfactory and meets previous standards after updates.
Cons
  • Does not display dictionary meanings for unknown or less common words, limiting usefulness.
  • Lacks feature to show dictionary only when a specific key is pressed, making it less user-friendly.
  • Menu and controls available in previous versions (pre-Quantum) are missing in the current version.
  • Installation issues such as no popup appearing after restart, causing confusion.
  • Documentation or usage instructions are outdated and do not reflect current add-on behavior.

Is Life Science Dictionary Tool 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.

Life Science Dictionary Tool requires a few sensitive permissions. 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.
