Read Later Firefox

Read Later

Save tabs for later, search them instantly, and organize reading lists into reusable groups.

Features & Capabilities

Read Later is a lightweight tab-saving extension for people who want to keep useful pages without leaving dozens of tabs open.

Save the current tab with a shortcut, find saved pages with fast fuzzy search, and reopen links when you are ready to read. You can organize related pages into groups, open an entire group at once, and keep your reading list easy to manage from a simple popup interface.

Key features:

  • Save the current tab from the popup or with Ctrl + B
  • Open the Read Later popup with Ctrl + Shift + B
  • Search saved tabs with fuzzy matching
  • Open saved links in a new tab, new window, or incognito window
  • Remove saved tabs after opening when needed
  • Create groups for projects, topics, or reading sessions
  • Open all URLs in a group at once
  • Copy all URLs from the current selected tabs
  • Export saved data to JSON for backup or migration
  • Uses Manifest V3 with a small, focused permissions set
Note for Windows Firefox users: the default Ctrl + B shortcut opens the Bookmarks Sidebar. Read Later opens a warning page during first install, and you can change the shortcut from about:addons > settings gear > Manage Extension Shortcuts.

Is Read Later 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.

Read Later requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Grants access to browser tabs, which can be used to track user browsing habits and history, presenting a privacy concern.
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.

Read Later may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
