User Reviews

Most reviews are negative: many users say the extension does not work, repeatedly cite a confusing "Device ID" requirement with no guidance, note there is no visible UI/icon to start casting, and criticize the lack of instructions or developer support. A very small number of users left brief positive remarks.

Pros

A small number of users left brief positive feedback (e.g., "Great" / "C'est Ok" ), indicating it may have worked for a few.

Cons

Multiple users report the add-on does not work or fails to cast.
The add-on requires a "Device ID" but provides no guidance where to obtain it; many users are confused by this.
No visible icon or clear way to start casting; users report no UI or button to begin casting.
Lack of instructions/documentation and poor developer support; users complain there is no setup help or explanation.

Nie wiadomo, jak to ma działać. CH jeden wie po co takie rozszerzenie - zainstalowałem, kliknąłem na ikonkę i nic, tylko "Wpisz ID urządzenia". Ale skąd go wziąść? Nie instalujcie tego, bo te rozszerzenie nie działa, a developer ma we łbie nasrane tak, że nawet krótkiej instrukcji nie zamieścił.

Is MagicCast 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.

MagicCast requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. 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.

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