What Chrome asks you to allow
When you add it, Chrome asks you to allow it to:
- Read and change all your data on all websites
- Read and change your bookmarks
- Read and change your browsing history on all your signed-in devices
- View and manage your tab groups
- Read the icons of the websites you visit
- Manage your downloads
Derived from the manifest by Chrome's documented rules; the dialog's exact wording depends on your Chrome version and language. Chrome asks again if an update requests more.
