Features & Capabilities

QOwnNotes Web Companion is a powerful Chrome extension designed to complement the open-source QOwnNotes app. It enables users to manage browser bookmarks directly within markdown files, seamlessly integrating note-taking and web browsing workflows. With this extension, you can create new notes from selected text or entire webpages, converting HTML content into markdown while downloading associated images. Additionally, capturing screenshots of the visible browser area and saving them as notes is straightforward and efficient.

This extension requires QOwnNotes to be running and leverages the tabs permission to facilitate bookmark management across all open tabs. It supports advanced scripting capabilities within QOwnNotes, making it an ideal tool for users seeking to organize web content, enhance productivity, and maintain synchronized notes across GNU/Linux, macOS, and Windows systems, especially when used with ownCloud or Nextcloud services.

Is QOwnNotes Web Companion 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.

QOwnNotes Web Companion 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.

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