WideGPT Firefox

WideGPT

WideGPT allows you to widen ChatGPT's answer area. Useful for wider code blocks - no more scrolling!

Features & Capabilities

WideGPT is a handy Chrome extension that enhances your ChatGPT experience by adding a slider at the top of the ChatGPT window to dynamically adjust the width of the response area. This feature is particularly useful when viewing wide code blocks or detailed content, eliminating the need for horizontal scrolling. Compatible with both free and paid versions of ChatGPT, WideGPT offers a smoother and more flexible interface for reading answers.

For developers and curious users, the source code of WideGPT is publicly available on GitHub, allowing for transparency and potential customization. This extension is ideal for users who want improved readability and control over the ChatGPT interface without altering the core functionality.

Is WideGPT 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.

WideGPT 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.

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