Features & Capabilities

Location Switcher is a Chrome extension designed for developers and testers who need to quickly switch between different environments, such as development and production sites. By clicking the ☯ icon in the address bar, users can seamlessly toggle between specified URLs, simplifying site testing and deployment workflows.

The extension supports multiple destinations for the same source URL, allowing flexibility when working with various staging or production servers. Custom routes can be defined for more complex switching needs without automatic looping. This tool enhances productivity by reducing manual URL edits during web development processes.

Source code and documentation are available on GitHub, encouraging transparency and community contributions.

Is Location Switcher 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.

Location Switcher requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
