In code review

Our reviewer read this extensionโ€™s code and found no malicious behaviour. An automated risk flag was reviewed and overturned.

What our analysis found

The QR Code Extension, used by 2,000,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in January 2026.

The extension implements a simple QR code generator with minimal permissions, no unauthorized network requests to third parties beyond Firebase (used for optional account sync) and a standard uninstall survey form. All behaviors align with the stated functionality, and the publisher is a trusted Google partner with a featured listing and 2M users. The ML model likely flagged benign framework patterns, Firebase SDK usage, and large bundle sizes.
