di Utente Firefox 13547740, 8 anni faWhy this addon requesting access to my personal data for all sites? https://prntscr.com/hvlsf3
I don't think it's good idea. Installation process was cancelled by me. Sorry.
PS. There's no replies chain so just had to add.
If you used already built-in downloads for visualisation in status bar, your addon don't need to access my data then.
If you didn't used built-in downloads it means you used bad practice. Your addon will use more PC's resources and slow down Firefox.
Also users don't trust addons that request access to data because data may content personal information, logins/passwords, credit cards info, etc.

Replica dello sviluppatore
pubblicato il 8 anni faYou seem to not understand how web extensions work. The old download status bar addon didn't ask for any permissions because legacy addons didn't have a permission system.
There is no way to show a status bar currently without injecting HTML into each page, which means the addon needs access to every website you visit.
Once Mozilla adds an API that allows creating real status bars then it will not need access to all pages, but that could be months away if not longer.

- Valutata 1 su 5di Iantuition, 10 mesi faNearly useless - having to first double-click the download in the status bar to open the download, then click "open download" in ANOTHER pop-up window (which often doesn't even come into focus, so the user has to find it) is more time consuming than simply opening the download window and opening the file from there. Uninstalled.
- Valutata 5 su 5di Rob, un anno faHow to stop it from opening a window to confirm I want to open a download please for the love of god this is so annoying.
- Valutata 1 su 5di rado84, un anno faDoesn't work at all, totally useless! The "status bar" won't even show up when a download starts.

- Valutata 4 su 5di Herman Blume, 2 anni faIt's good, and it's really, really close to being perfect. Just wish there was an option to click the downloaded file and automatically open it.
