SnapWeb for Firefox

By: Benja Add-on
Seamlessly enables Snapchat Web compatibility in Firefox by spoofing the browser environment.

Features & Capabilities

SnapWeb for Firefox is a lightweight compatibility extension that enables Snapchat Web to load within Firefox.

Snapchat Web frequently restricts or blocks access for Firefox users by detecting the browser environment. This extension restores access by systematically spoofing the User-Agent string to emulate Google Chrome, allowing the website to load and function as intended.

Why I created SnapWeb I developed this extension because existing solutions often felt opaque, frequently relying on external pings, telemetry, or suspicious background updates. I wanted a solution that respected user privacy and transparency. SnapWeb is built to be purely local, the code is as clean as it gets, with absolutely no external dependencies or tracking. You can inspect the source code yourself to verify exactly how it functions.

Why use SnapWeb?

  • Restores Access: Enables you to use Snapchat Web on your preferred browser without compatibility blocks.
  • Privacy Focused: This extension operates entirely locally. It does not collect, store, or transmit your personal data, messages, or browsing activity to any external servers.
  • Transparent & Minimal: Built with clean, lightweight code focused solely on compatibility.

Technical Note Please note that this extension modifies your browser identity strictly for the purpose of loading Snapchat Web. It is scoped to only modify browser headers when accessing the following domains: snapchat.com and sc-corp.net. No other websites are affected.

Is SnapWeb for Firefox 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.

SnapWeb for Firefox 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.

SnapWeb for Firefox is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
