User Reviews
Users appreciate Sidebar Note for its simplicity, ease of use, and effectiveness as a basic note-taking tool with helpful features like dark mode and context menu support. However, multiple reviews highlight the need for improvements such as syncing notes across devices, adding text formatting (Markdown, font size, bold), batch management options like deleting all notes, better customization including full color choices, and RTL text support. Overall, while it fulfills its core purpose well, users seek enhanced flexibility and cross-device functionality. Pros
- Simple and easy to use interface
- Effectively serves its purpose as a note-taking extension
- Includes useful features like dark mode and context menu integration
- Lightweight and efficient for daily note-taking tasks
- Supports multiple languages and is easy to set up
Cons
- Lack of synchronization across devices or cloud services
- No advanced text formatting options such as Markdown or font adjustments
- Absence of batch actions, e.g., deleting all notes at once
- Limited customization like only preset background colors instead of full color selection
- No support for right-to-left text direction

Pretty good extension and it does what it's supposed to. Is there a way to make it so when I press tab it automatically adds 4 spaces?

Is Sidebar Note 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.
Sidebar Note does not require any sensitive permissions.
