Rated 4 out of 5
by Firefox user 12343100, 7 years agoThe "clean" button is confusing. There's no indication of what it does since it doesn't seem to affect the current domain. I always use the dropdown to do the cleaning I want.
It was confusing that this isn't like Self-Destructing Cookies in that cleaning cookies and localstorage when you leave a domain isn't enabled by default. But worse, even when that's enabled, it doesn't work properly. I keep having to use the option to manually clean cookies for domains I last visited days before (mainly news sites that give a limited number of articles per month and warn me that I have only one article left). I have an older system with the Self-Destructing Cookies extension and it has no such problems with the exact same sites.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Saint.77, 12 days agoOne of the essential plugins for anonymity. This allows you to control cookies. Firefox have some protection built in but this gives you much more control with whitelists etc just 2 clicks away if you need it which makes it a must to those that want some level of anonymity while surfing the net.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Lilith D. Bracken, 17 days agoReally useful extension for keeping cookies under control without having to think about it. It automatically deletes cookies from closed tabs while keeping the ones you trust. I like that it supports containers and gives you options to keep cookies temporarily or permanently. It helps keep browsing clean and private, and it’s easy to manage with clear settings. Perfect for anyone who wants better privacy and less tracking without constantly clearing cookies manually.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19484692, a month agoRecently I've found that all cookies I have are really from the URL (websites) I visit, not with weird names like 000adv.net as before. So, I conclude that this app works well!
- Rated 2 out of 5by Camilo, 2 months agoThis was probably a good extension as of the last update (3 years ago). Now it's abandoned, unmantained, obsolete and maybe even dangerous.
The list of domains has a terrible layout with misplaced scrollbars, very difficult to navigate.
It also requires the following two flags:
* privacy.userContext.enabled
* privacy.userContext.ui.enabled
that I cannot remove in order to disable the useless "container tabs" feature. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13877502, 2 months agoAutocleaning stopped working correctly, cookies are not deleted

- Rated 3 out of 5by Stelioss, 4 months agoDoesn't reliably clean all cookies. With auto cleaning and cleanup on domain change options enabled, i often find non-white listed cookies left behind, long after the 15 seconds time limit and even after restart.
The UI is very convoluted. I appreciate the right-click entry that allows you to whitelist websites while there, but setting up the options of the addon is a mess. Perhaps a novice/expert UI option would help with that. - Rated 5 out of 5by Olivier, 4 months ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19016345, 5 months agoNo clue how to use this over-engineered extension. The UI is baffling.

- Rated 1 out of 5by mann, 5 months agoNo longer works reliably: Some cookies are still deleted, but most remain. Annoying if you rely on this function and end up with your pants down because of it!
