What our analysis found

Genio Notes, used by 80,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. It was last updated in May 2026.

Analyst notes

The extension is a legitimate companion for the Genio Notes web application, providing side-panel note-taking with capture capabilities. Permissions are directly justified by its functionality, and all network communication is limited to the publisher's own domain. The ML model likely flagged it due to the powerful permissions, which are necessary and publicly disclosed.
