Is Ahero App safe?

Low risk

Ahero App lets approved web pages send messages that sign the user out or change blocking settings.

Ahero App exposes an external messaging interface to thesidekick.app, aheroapp.com, and localhost pages. Those pages can ask the extension to sign the user out, clear local extension storage and alarms, turn default blocking on or off, or apply saved snooze settings.
