Why does Chrome say the extension is "not trusted by Enhanced Safe Browsing"?

When you install Kaptex, Chrome may show a "Proceed with caution" message saying the extension is not trusted by Enhanced Safe Browsing. This is safe to dismiss — Kaptex is not malicious.

Enhanced Safe Browsing is a Chrome feature that flags extensions that are new to the Chrome Web Store. Because Kaptex was published recently, it hasn't yet accumulated enough install history for Chrome to automatically mark it as trusted. This is a time-based threshold, not a review of what the extension actually does.

The warning has nothing to do with the permissions Kaptex requests or how it behaves — it simply reflects how new the listing is.

What you can do:

Click "Continue to install" to proceed — the extension is safe. Kaptex is published on the official Chrome Web Store and goes through Google's standard extension review process before being listed.

If you'd like to verify it yourself before installing, you can check the Chrome Web Store listing for Kaptex, read the Privacy Policy at kaptex.io/privacy, or review the permissions Chrome lists during installation.

As more users install Kaptex, Chrome's Enhanced Safe Browsing system will automatically clear the warning based on usage history.
