ProductivityTab — Custom New Tab Dashboard

this extension is some sort of malware. When in the settings area, it has a drop down to allow the extension to view 100% Site access Allow this extension to read and change all your data on websites you visit: On all sites on some sites on click when i select "on click" it crashes every instance of chrome i have open. It wont let me remove it from chrome. it wont let me remove permissions . so now basically my entire account is compromised.

1 star for trimming down features and making them premium-only

Nice idea, but... a) Needs to many permissions (read content of ALL websites you browse for a new-tab-addon?) b) very buggy (resizing and placing widgets is a big pain) c) Too expensive. A subscription for a simple tool like this, just to get transparent widgets? Seriously??? I'm happy to pay for good software. But for small tools like this I expect a one time fee. And it's way too buggy to pay for it.

I've used it for years, and when it works, it's fine. But it regularly overloads feedly, which results in no news feeds being updated, sometimes for weeks at a time. So your home page ends showing you headlines and info from weeks ago. I've communicated my grievances about this to the developers and they seem unable to apply any kind of lasting fix. So I'm done with it. RSS is a dying technology, anyway.

Not bad, but kmon, $5 to get rid of ugly add banner is too much.

Really good and it's free so I can't really ask for more.

I did not pay attention to the pro features and was happy with the free version. I don't care about transparency. Today I go and see that there was a terrible update. Now only the light theme is available, and the standard dark theme is only for the pro. Full-screen mode for news was also free, now paid, and there were ads. I will not write "return as it was", because still won't return. Just look for an alternative and don't bother with it.

Loved it - today an update cam and all my data is lost and demo content is displayed. Is there a way to get back my dashboard as it was?

Has the customizable stuff you are probably looking for.

Best ever extension i have ever got for staying productive ....love it

6 years user here... TERRIBLE EXTENSION! Full of bugs on almost every single widget. RSS feeds never work correctly. Reddit widget is full of bugs. Same for twitter. Stock widget is even worse. Nothing works correctly. Annoying ads and sponsored google search. WORST OF ALL: Developers don't care, they never fix anything even when you report the bugs to support. GARBAGE.

The best chrome tab!

good

LOVE IT!!! Love the options, however, I don't know how to remove the widgets off the dashboard w/o deleting them permanently. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP, LOL! Thank you!

Wow, great extension. Exactly what I need.

So far so excellent.... kind of laggy, but very customizable. 7/10.... SO FAR.

It's extremely ugly for today's design standards. And you have to pay just to change to a dark transparent theme. Yuck. Also, BBC and MSN news? No thanks.

Extension requires with subscription of $4.99 per month or $29.99 per year. pretty sure there is a million other tools that can do exactly what this can, dont let the TERRIBLE/SUSPICIOUS search functionality for the Chrome Web Store get in your way when it only shows promoted and subscription hungry extensions like this get in your way. search on google: "site:chrome.google.com new tab page" (without quotes) and I guarantee that you'll find at least 20 extensions better than this that are free with developers who actually should be making extensions.

Güzel.

Not very impressed. I can't resize the widgets, and they don't seem to do what I want. Eg I can get an Android widget on my phone, which forecasts by the hour, is resizeable and it's free! On this site, which is ad supported, the one I want isn't. Etc.

dark mode should not be a pro feature

Very useful extension, but it seems that the author has lost enthusiasm, which is really a pity.

Buggy, Ads, even basic features behind a "pro" version. Honestly there a hundred better alternatives out there. Steer clear.

(2015) Had everything I wanted to make my tab useful. Been using it for over a year now :) (2021) Update: Been using this extensions for many years now, but this extension has gone downhill since. The last update was from March 2021, and it is clear that this extension is now abandoned. This is a shame because I really loved this extension, but now it is unusable with the lack of management.

amazing

I freaking love it. I was thinking to install a checklist in my home search page but this is better.

Would be perfect if it didn't andomly reset to settings from a random amount of time ago. Had to re-do my set up multiple times and now I've given up

Awesome app for my studio and all-around business

Epic (dear people who don't know how o do stuff, did you even LOOK at the tutorial???) pro HIGHLY customizable Can change your search engine many different apps very sleek in design easy to use you can have everything in only one tab cons Moving stuff is quite hard and is sometimes a pain There is a ad(only one tho) starting might be a bit confusing (DONT SKIP THE TUTORIAL)

Great customisation

i can see this new tab page.

A alguien le está apareciendo facebook y keep "rechazó la conexión" ???

Forces you to use Bing search????? I tried many times to change it over to google but always Bing.

This is a very customizable, really useful new tab page. The main thing it suffers from is the inability to upload custom images for site links. When creating a site link, you MUST specify a URL for the logo, and file:/// references don't work.

Is this a fake one? I found two of the same extension.

In addition to collecting all your stats, it literally puts ads on your new tab page. Complete garbage philosophy behind the great idea.

Representative example of the design quality for the extension as a whole: In order to move a widget around, you have to hover over a precise *4x4 pixel target* in an ellipses-menu-that-isn't-actually-a-menu. Gotta admire the audacity of asking people to either view ads or pay $5 a month for this

Reaaly good, infact the best customisable tab! Love it!

*IT'S ALL LOCKED BEHIND A PAY WALL, DO NOT INSTALL, CONTAINS VIRUS TOO* Many issues. My Malwarebytes kept detecting Adware from this extension, which it blocked every single one. Why is there adware in this extension? The customization feels very lackluster (No way to change colour because I had to pay) The weather app didn't seem to recognize 'United Kingdom' which is... dumb to say the least. The background doesn't even change which just seems lazy to me?

Nice i love it

Truly good new tab app, solves many problems, including AI on desktop stage - laptop case involved.

omg sooooooo coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool for edukaision (.

I use this extension many times per day every day. I have been able with the Pro version to optimize customizing pages that help me keep various aspects of my life organized with information a click away. I ran into a problem after an update where my customized pages disappeared but their customer service tech people were able to get them back and for that I thank them. It took a couple of weeks but they came through as they had promised they would.

Ha perdido sus funcionalidades básicas que tenía en un principio. No conecta con Feedly (no permite cargar los RSS), no conecta con el Tiempo correctamente, ni siquiera los anuncios cargan bien... una pena.

The Features are very good but the UI is pulling down your extension.

Good - seems pretty useful

Exactly what I was looking for!

It's one of the most useful chrome extensions around, and is like a desktop- but customizable.

so far I like. I wish there were a widget to quick link my google photos. still nice.

I like it, I can edit it however I want and the backgrounds are nice.
