Features & Capabilities

Open Bookmark in Container Tab is a Firefox extension that enhances your bookmarking experience by adding an 'Open in Container Tab' option directly to your bookmark menus. This allows users to open bookmarks seamlessly in container tabs, helping separate browsing contexts within the same window. The feature is especially useful for managing different online identities or separating work and personal browsing.

Note that container tabs are supported only in non-private browsing windows, so the option won't appear in private windows. By default, the menu item shows at the bottom of the context menu, but advanced users can customize its placement near the top alongside other 'Open in...' options by following detailed instructions in the developer's GitHub repository. This extension boosts productivity and privacy by simplifying container tab usage right from your bookmarks.

User Reviews

Users appreciate this add-on for enabling the ability to open bookmarks in specific container tabs, a feature lacking in Firefox's native Multi-Account Containers. It provides a convenient context menu option and is considered essential by many. However, some users report bugs causing dialog floods, and others suggest improvements like permanent association of bookmarks to containers to save clicks. There is also sentiment that such functionality should be integrated into Firefox itself. Despite overlapping upcoming features in Firefox, this extension remains valued for its completeness and usability.

Pros

Enables opening bookmarks in specific container tabs, a feature not natively supported by Firefox Multi-Account Containers.
Adds a convenient context menu option for opening bookmarks directly in containers.
Highly valued by users who rely on container tabs for managing multiple accounts or browsing contexts.
Simple and effective extension that fills a gap in Firefox's container functionality.
Users find it essential and recommend it to be integrated as a default Firefox feature.

Cons

Some users feel the feature should be built into Firefox by default, making the add-on redundant.
A few users report glitches causing repeated dialog boxes and browser instability.
Requests for improved usability, such as linking specific bookmarks permanently to containers to reduce clicks.
Desire for container options to be more prominently placed in the context menu, but this may require Mozilla's intervention.
Overlap with existing or upcoming features in Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension might reduce the add-on's necessity over time.

Recent reviews

Does exactly what Firefox is natively lacking. Excellent work.

Is Open bookmark in Container Tab 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.

Open bookmark in Container Tab requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Medium Access to bookmarks may provide insights into user preferences and interests but generally carries low risk.

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.

Open bookmark in Container Tab has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
