Frequently asked questions about Chrome Extensions

Real answers from real users, pulled straight from launch discussions, forums, and reviews.

  • Text Blaze can run as both a browser extension and a standalone app — using the app can reduce exposure to extension permissions. Key things to watch for, illustrated by real extension behavior:

    • Permissions & transparency: check prompts for broad rights (a reviewer noted an extension’s ability to “track the full screen”), and avoid installs that request unnecessary access.
    • Data storage & controls: some tools (for example, Sider) auto-save research into a workspace (Wisebase) — confirm how saved data is stored, who can access it, and whether you can export or delete it.
    • Third‑party models & integrations: note which AI/models the extension calls and whether you can opt out or control those integrations.

    Before installing, read the extension’s permission list and privacy settings.
