Is Manage WhatsApp Inbox safe?
Manage WhatsApp Inbox sends your WhatsApp number and each bulk message's recipient, text and active tab URL to its Firebase backend.
The extension reads your own WhatsApp number from web.whatsapp.com and, on each bulk send, writes the recipient number, message text, your number and the active tab URL to the vendor's Firestore database. Your number is also placed in the uninstall redirect URL and sent with the install event to Mixpanel.
Rated medium risk because of who publishes it: 1 of the 3 other listings from the same operator is rated high or critical for malicious behaviour. Flagged: WA - Send Message without saving contact (high).

3 other listings published from this account, 2k+ users between them. 1 of them carries a finding.
Shared hosts - 1 hostname
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.
