Replace your new tab page with awesome productivity widgets
PepperTab is a browser extension that will replace the page you see when you open a new tab, with a personalized dashboard.
You can get weather updates, take notes, create todos, see events from your Google Calendar...etc on your new tab page. You can also see refreshing wallpapers every time you open a new tab.
PepperTab is built with privacy in mind. All your personal data are stored safely in the browser. You can optionally store and sync your data using secure Blockstack Blockchain infrastructure.
- Take Notes on your new tab.
- Create Todos on your new tab.
- See new refreshing photos every 10 minutes.
- See latest Weather.
- Integrate with Google calendar and see upcoming events.
- Quick access to top sites.
- Store and sync your notes and todos securely and privately on Blockstacks powered storage.
Permissions:
Location - Needed to show weather.
Access to peppertab.com - To login to Blockstacks (using peppertab.com as app) to store and sync data.
Access to content.googleapis.com - To fetch Google Calendar data.
Access to browser history (Optional) - To show most visited websites.
Location, Google access tokens, Browser history...etc are only used within in the extension locally. None of these data is sent to our server. The only server interaction is for getting new background images.
Your data like Notes and Todos, when stored using Blockstacks infracstructure, is fully encrypted and remains private. Nobody (including us and Blockstacks) can access those data apart from you.
New in v 1.7.0:
- Reorder and edit Todos
- Light mode
- Edit Links
- Minor improvements and fixes

One of the only reasons i got this extension was to have a clean view of my google calendar on the new tab page but the calendar widget shows that everything is happening the day before it shows on the google calendar. For example if i have an event on the 10th of october it'll show that its happening on the 9th of october. Everything else works nicely
Very helpful! Having so many widgets available is a dream. But unfortunately, there are a few organization and customization things I wish I could do. Manually changing the wallpaper, manually changing the weather location, or rearranging or adding new widgets would be awesome. This is so far the best new tab page i've found to suit my needs as a student for organizing.
I cant add Blockstack on Chrome.. See on Github: https://github.com/larrysalibra/custom-protocol-detection/pull/1 (ChromeOS Bug isnt fixed yet)
Great extension except for 1 big issue. Calendar is 1 day ahead (tomorrow's events shows up as today, today's events shows up as yesterday). I checked system clock and google calendar time zone -- still didn't fix the issue.
Muy útil esta extensión. Me gustaría tener más control de la localización ya que está incorrecta pero igual la recomiendo
Great extension. Increases productivity and helps in my daily tasks. One suggestion if I can drag and drop my todos to priortitize. When I add a new todo, it adds at the end of list. Is there a way I can drag it to top or middle ?
It would be nice to manually choose the location for the weather as well as choosing between Fahrenheit / Celsius.
