Is VFS Appointment Booker for Schengen Visa safe?

Clean risk

VFS Appointment Booker for Schengen Visa reads VFS one-time-password emails from Gmail to fill codes on VFS pages.

When Auto-OTP is enabled, the extension requests Gmail readonly access and searches unread VFS one-time-password emails after the current OTP flow starts. It retrieves the newest matching Gmail message, decodes the email body to extract a six-digit code, then types that code into the VFS OTP field and clicks the verification or sign-in button.
