User Reviews

The add-on largely fails: authentication prompts persist, messages and unread counts do not display, and notifications stop working. In addition, clicking the icon may open an intrusive ad window. Several users note it stopped functioning due to Mozilla/Yandex changes and lack of updates. A minority recall it once worked and was useful, but overall the extension is unreliable and abandoned.

Pros

Historically worked and was considered useful (some users called it 'cool' in the past).
When functioning, the icon could open Yandex Mail directly from the Firefox toolbar.
Some users reported partial functionality or stability in older versions.

Cons

Prompts to authorize ('пожалуйста авторизуйтесь') even when already logged in; authentication flow is broken.
Does not display messages or unread counts; content loading is unreliable.
Notifications stopped working in recent versions.
Clicking the extension sometimes opens an ad window for Yandex services; intrusive advertising.
No longer supported or updated by the developer; compatibility issues with Mozilla/Yandex changes.

Данное ПО не выполняет свою функцию. При клике открывается окно с рекламой говносервисов Яндекс. И вот уже с рекламного окна можно перейти на почту. Придётся искать другое расширение для проверки яндекс-почты (без обязательной говно-рекламы)

Is Yandex.Bar 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.

Yandex.Bar requires a lot of sensitive permissions. 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.

Yandex.Bar may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
