Even the limited free version (thank you Jevgenij) is well executed and really useful for storing strings that need to be regularly entered into forms, eg names, email addresses. If this were a one-off purchase I would probably buy it, but like another reviewer here, I am weary of the subscription model that so many sites/add-ons/etc. now use.

by Ch*****, 2025-12-02

It works, however has a limit of 300 chars for the free version and then you need to pay monthly 2.5 eur. Also need to give email to have unlimited snippets. The pay is not much however i'm burned out with everything being a subscription these days. Would prefer a one time smaller fee to have this unlocked. That being said, the free tier is decent and generous so thanks for that.

Is Web Text Expander 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.

Web Text Expander requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. 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.

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.

Web Text Expander is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
