User reviews

Open Multiple URLs is praised for its flawless performance, simplicity, and efficiency in opening many URLs simultaneously, making it a time saver compatible with other addons. However, users commonly note the absence of a delay feature between opening URLs, risking website limitations or load failures. Additionally, the addon lacks URL input saving functionality, and certain features, like delayed tab loading, carry risks of tab loss if the extension is disabled. Despite these issues, the addon remains highly rated and well-regarded for its core functionality.
Pros
  • Works flawlessly and fits user needs perfectly.
  • Allows opening multiple URLs efficiently, saving time.
  • Compatible and works well with other addons like Load Background Tabs Lazily and Copy Selected Tabs to Clipboard.
  • Handles non-URL text gracefully without issues.
  • Simple and effective with no unnecessary features needed.
Cons
  • Lacks an option to add delay between opening URLs, which can cause issues with websites limiting simultaneous connections.
  • Does not save URLs input by the user; lacks a save button or session persistence.
  • The 'Do not load tabs until selected' option uses a custom mechanism that can delete unopened tabs if the extension is disabled, posing a risk of data loss.

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.

Open Multiple URLs does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
    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 Browser Add-ons, 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.
