User Reviews

Users find the TIFF viewer add-on easy to install and functional for single-page TIFF images, providing convenience within Firefox. However, multiple reviews highlight limitations such as inability to display multi-page TIFF files fully and compatibility issues with some Firefox versions. Additionally, the add-on lacks deep integration with Firefox's file handling settings, which hinders seamless OS-level recognition and usage akin to the built-in PDF viewer.

Pros

Simple and easy to install and use.
Works well for single-page TIFF files.
Integrates TIFF viewing capability directly in Firefox without needing external programs.

Cons

Only displays the first page of multi-page TIFF files, lacking full multi-page support.
Does not work in certain Firefox versions (e.g., Firefox 84.0.1 on Windows 7).
Doesn't integrate with Firefox's file handling preferences as seamlessly as PDF viewer, limiting OS-level recognition and handling of TIFF files.

Is TIFF viewer 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.

TIFF viewer 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.

TIFF viewer has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
