Is there any specific reason for requiring browsing history before installation?

Hi Diego, Same here. I keep at least 2 Quire tabs (one of them being Quire Feedbacks and the other being my to-dos filtered by date & priority) always open and pinned. 😃

@crystal as far as I understand, Google asks for it because Quire's developer declared the "history" permission in the extension manifest (manifest.json) for a some questionable reason ;-)

thanks @crystal sounds nice in the end i decided to remove the extension with such kind of permissions PS: i keep quire tab always opened and pinned actually even 2: one with tasks sorted date, and another without filters

Hi Diego, We ask for the permission because we check your browser tabs to see if there is a Quire tab. If not, then when you click on a notification in the extension, we will create a new one for you. Just that. 😃

Hi Diego, Not sure why Google asks for it, but here is the information we found: https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/permission_warnings.
