User Reviews

Don't trust the "Usage"! You have to do it with a space between the ! and the letter. Like "! w banana". It does work!

Not working at all ... tried with "w banana", "!w banana" and others bangs availables (from github project) and always Google Search page opens with the url "https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=w+Banana". Btw, You cited that the search opens the results without leaving the current page ... completely wrong! So useless for now

Is Quickie 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.

Quickie does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Low Allows usage of omnibox input, negligible risk as it pertains largely to user input enhancements.

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.

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