Is Macify - Gorgeous Aerial Videos as Your New Tab safe?

Medium risk

Macify sends optional weather keys and city to WeatherAPI over HTTP and sends top-site origins to Google's favicon service.

When weather is enabled, Macify reads the saved city and WeatherAPI key and requests current and forecast weather from api.weatherapi.com over HTTP. If Top Sites is enabled and the history permission is granted, it derives frequently visited URLs from browser history, stores the top 10 locally, and loads favicons from s2.googleusercontent.com with each site origin in the query.
