  • Quickly run Platypush actions on any host from your toolbar or browser menu. Controlling your lights, media, assistant and smart home device is just a click away.
  • Debug and explore Platypush actions.
  • Create your custom JavaScript actions to for deeper integration with your browser. You have full access both to the Platypush API and the browser Web Extension API. It means that you can easily create actions that connect the two worlds - like simplifying a web page, play some video on a page on Chromecast/Kodi, whitelist or block domains, send a page to your Kindle etc.
  • Attach custom JavaScript hooks that will run in your browser when Platypush events occur. Be notified in your browser of e.g. media being played on your device, or if the temperature or humidity in a room go above/below a certain threshold.

Is Platypush 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.

Platypush requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

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.

Platypush is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
