Is Send to qBittorrent safe?
Send to qBittorrent stores your WebUI host, username, and password in plaintext via Chrome Sync.
When you enter your qBittorrent WebUI address and login in the popup, the extension saves them unencrypted with chrome.storage.sync, which Google Chrome syncs to every browser signed into your Google account. The extension has no background script or network code, so despite its name it never actually sends anything to qBittorrent in this version — it only collects and cloud-syncs the credential.
