User reviews

Doesn't work. May be malware. When I left-clicked on the extension, nothing happened. When I right-clicked on it to display the context menu, the Options item was grayed-out, so I clicked on the option labeled "Protonmail Avatars." That opened the Protonmail Login page, prefilled with the name of one of my protonmail accounts. I logged in, but "Protonmail Avatars" was nowhere in sight. You have to suspect that any app you download that is this dysfunctional may simply be a vector to install malware on your computer, even if you downloaded it from the Chrome Store (as I did). As soon as I publish this review, I'm going to remove it from my browser and run a deep malware scan. My advice is not to install it on any browser.
