MEGA with browser extensions
Download our browser extensions and benefit from reduced loading times, improved file transfers, and strengthened security.
It’s faster to load MEGA
Loading MEGA with browser extensions is faster as MEGA’s source code files (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) are loaded from the extension rather than MEGA’s servers. This saves time because MEGA doesn’t need to be downloaded and verified on the web each time you visit MEGA.
It’s easier to transfer larger files
The internal memory provided by the browser is limited for file transfers. MEGA extensions solve this by allowing you to transfer larger files within the browser.
It’s more secure
Browser extension updates are cryptographically protected, which means your MEGA extension is safe and secure. The extensions contain all the source code (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) needed, so MEGA runs locally on your device, rather than on the web, which can be even more secure. For more information, see section 2.2 of our Security Whitepaper.
