User reviews
VIA should justify requesting "Read your browser history" permissions and add a privacy policy, or it drop the requirement.
Installing this app provides access that could easily leak sensitive corporate and personal info. I would avoid it until VIA justifies the need.

Currently, the extension doesn't work for me. I also had problems with it in the past. My only option is to use the VIA app in Windows. But, all my software, docs, and slides are in Linux.
Until they get it working, possibly working together with the tech department, the extension is complete garbage.

Such a big improvement over the old VIA extension! So far it has worked smoothly on all of my computers and Chromebooks. I'll update if I see any issues with it in the future...

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.
VIA Screen Share requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. 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.
VIA Screen Share is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this extension.
