Version 1.03.09 View in Chrome Web Store
The extension has very limited adoption with only 760 users and no reviews, which raises questions about its legitimacy and quality. The lack of developer information, author details, and missing last updated date are concerning red flags that suggest poor maintenance or potentially suspicious origins. The 0.0 rating with no reviews indicates either the extension is very new or users haven't engaged with it meaningfully.
The "search" permission is unnecessary for a live wallpaper extension, which should only need to display animated backgrounds. Live wallpaper extensions typically don't require any special permissions beyond basic extension APIs. This permission mismatch suggests the extension may have functionality beyond its stated purpose or could be collecting search data. The minimal security findings don't account for the permission-to-functionality mismatch, which is a significant concern.
Consider running this extension in a separate Chrome profile to isolate any potential data collection or unwanted behavior. Before installing, verify the extension's actual functionality matches its description by checking user reviews on other platforms. Look for alternative Hello Kitty wallpaper extensions from more established developers with better track records. Monitor your browser's search behavior after installation for any unexpected changes. Given the low user base and permission concerns, consider using static wallpaper images instead of this extension.
