Interesting.
I had installed bandwidthhero on firefox, created app and it worked.

Then I started chrome and installed the same taking from chrome store. I put the same app bh-app url in chrome, that I had created for firefox. It worked.

I was not signed or anything on chrome. For that matter, I don't remember whether it had asked me even in firefox, whether that app was mine, I don't think it required any signup or anything.

how does the extention know that the app is mine?

Does it mean that anyone can use my app-url?

I don't have any problem as such, just thinking that if many persons are using my single app simultaneiously on different boxes at different places/ even different countries, wouldn't it slow down my app as the servers must have a time slice per app.

Please elaborate, and if required, add a signing in menchanism in b-h with respect to the app.

Thanks.

If someone has the url of your app, then they can indeed use it. But you should be able to password protect it. Check your app's settings.
