User reviews
Pros
- Simple, minimalist, and clean design appreciated by multiple users.
- Excellent black and white contrast, providing a soothing and visually comfortable experience.
- Effective differentiation of active tabs from inactive ones, aiding navigation.
- The theme enhances focus and reduces visual distraction.
- Works well with Chrome's interface and is favored over many other themes.
Cons
- The vertical thick white double-lines as tab separators are considered distracting by some users.
- The color line underneath the tab groups is very thin and almost invisible, diminishing its effectiveness.
- Lack of customizable background images or inability to upload custom backgrounds has been noted.
- Some users find the roundness in Chrome's design does not mesh well with the theme's aesthetics.

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.
Black & White does not require any sensitive permissions.
Risk impact analysis details
- Low This permission has no access or impact on the user's system or data, thus carrying no risk.
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.
Black & White has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
Risk likelihood analysis details
- Medium This extension has medium user count. Unpopular extensions may not be stable or safe.
