User Reviews

Okay, so... it's an RSS feed reader, right? I should be able to add feeds to see in the window. Right? So here's the deal........... HOW DO I DO THAT???? Because I have found absolutely no way whatsoever to add a feed. Just a refresh button. What am I gonna refresh? Air???

Dieses Add-on ist ein guter Ersatz für die bisher von Firefox unterstützten dynamischen Lesezeichen. Einfach die entsprechende Seite aufrufen z. B. http://www.tagesschau.de/ und anschließend auf das Reader-Symbol in der Symbolleiste klicken. Es öffnet sich ein Dialogfeld, in dem man auswählen kann wo das Lesezeichen gespeichert werden soll. Mit Klick auf die Schaltfläche "add feed" werden die Einstellungen übernommen und das Lesezeichen an der ausgewählten Position gespeichert. Fertig. Einfacher geht es nicht!

Is Wannabe RSS Reader 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.

Wannabe RSS Reader requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
  • Medium ****** ** ********* *** ******* ******** **** **** *********** *** ********* *** ********* ******* *** *****
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.

Wannabe RSS Reader is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
