Features & Capabilities

Tab Notifier is a powerful browser extension that brings desktop notifications to your web browsing experience. It supports native Chrome desktop notifications (e.g., Gmail, imo.im) and can notify you of new messages or updates by detecting title changes in tabs even if the website lacks native support. This means you'll never miss important updates from popular sites like Hotmail, Yahoo, Facebook, or Twitter, even when your browser window is minimized.

The extension also exposes the Chrome desktop notifications API, allowing seamless integration with web pages and other add-ons. You can click on notifications to instantly open the relevant tab, enhancing your productivity and responsiveness. Additionally, advanced users can fine-tune notification animations and queue settings for a personalized experience. Tab Notifier is available for multiple browsers, including Chrome and Firefox as a WebExtension, ensuring wide compatibility.

Is Tab notifier 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.

Tab notifier 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.

Tab notifier has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
