Blank New Tab Page
Extension Delisted
This extension is no longer available in the official store. Delisted on 2025-09-15.
Replaces the New Tab page with a blank one.
For those that want a completely blank New Tab page without any content.
BOOKMARKS BAR
Normally, Chrome displays the Bookmarks Bar on the New Tab page if you have "Show Bookmarks Bar" set to off in Chrome Bookmarks Settings. This extension will not display a Bookmarks Bar and is completely empty. If you want a blank New Tab page that still retains the Bookmarks Bar, please install this extension instead:

Latest reviews
Very simple, very effective. Thank you. Was getting a Microsoft Bing page with all their ridiculous celebrity gossip and a bunch of other nonsense.
Installed this extension and now I don't have a New Tab page anymore. 10/10 :D
Thank you!!! :)
Reliably works. Thank you, just what I was looking for. Very clean.
Finally can get to use Chrome without these doodle things that are so distracting at times. Thank you!
Congratulations to the talented developer of this extension, who managed to succeed where a thousand Google/Chrome engineers flunked.
Thanks for creating a very simple blank page. I hate nowdays browser is holding us back rather than allowing us to do what we want.
Would really like a dark mode
It works
Must have for any Chrome-based browser.
no distractions
This is a really useful extension and Google should make it the default. Really a must-have for new users.
great, but how do i get the dark bg page ?
Thank you, Nick Vogt. This simple extension brought me more joy than watching The Last Jedi, which I also loved.
would be perfect if you could customize the color, which is why I only give 4/5 stars, this extension only uses 15 MB of memory. the default "New tab" in chrome uses 90 MB... and is most likely spying on you.
It do what it is supposed to do, a blank new tab.
选项根本点不开 不能自定义新窗口地址
This is great at removing the recently used thumbnails. If this extension had an option to show the bookmarks bar on new tabs also, that would make this extension even better and 5 stars.
I have used this extension for years. Why chrome doesn't have this great feature built in is beyond me.
great, but i'd like black instead of white and i don't use google, i use ddg in the url/search box google is evil, sry
Best extension ever. Exactly what I was looking for.
YAY!!! PERFECT!!!! Eliminates also that stupid "about.blank" which I have to get RID of to put in where I want to go. THANK YOU, Nick!
Works a treat - simple, quick and pain-free!
it works, unlike other so called "New Tab" extensions i've tried - thanks!
Does exactly what it says: gives you a blank page for new tabs.
Brilliant,just what i needed.Thanks
thanks
good
잘쓰개요^^
love it. hate google's thumbnails. thanks Nick.
Perfect for me. I am a minimalist.
Useful plugin. Highly recommend it.
I'm sorry, I only wanted my new tabs to be blank. I didn't want a blank page when I open Chrome.
perfect, thanks... for giving a white page :)
Just wanted a clean new tab page- works great. Thank you!
best new tab
So great! I was looking for a way to avoid looking at google's stupid suggested daily searches.
If you use Chrome in an address-bar-search-first sort of way, you'll really appreciate this extension: it removes all the rest of the UI in new tabs (that you don't use.) It's my favorite extension, even over ad blockers, because not every tab has ads, but every tab does have that UI you don't use...
THANK YOU.
Does exactly as advertised.
Fantastico
