Recent reviews

if you have more than three destination folders you can't scroll when adding "new folder" in Chome :`-(

Well, it works, but only if you want to have less than fourth destinations. From the fourth on, the tiny options screen doesn't scroll down so you can't configure any path or alias.

Simple and convenient better than other similar but does not always save to the correct folder and not always an image, but which file without expansion

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.

Save to folder from context menu requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Medium Allows management of download operations but generally doesn't severely affect security unless misused.

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.

Save to folder from context menu has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
