Features & Capabilities

Open tabs in a native split view right in your browser

The extension has 3 layouts: 2 frames horizontal, 3 frames horizontal and 2 frames vertical. You can resize each frames.

And even if it is not recommended, you can in fact mix and match those layouts by opening in one of the frames a tab where the extension is already running.

Important security caveat

For this extension to work, it has to lower the security of your browser by allowing any website to be embedded in iframes. This is done by modifying headers on the fly. To be as secure as possible, this is only the case when the extension has some Split views open.

User Reviews

Works way better than the official "Side view" addon. Thank you for creating this addon!

This is really great! Except there is a security caveat which needs to get fixed. I hope they can fix it and I will gladly go 5 star!

Is Split View 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.

Split View 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.

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