Blank New Tab Page
Description from store

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:

Very simple, very effective. Thank you. Was getting a Microsoft Bing page with all their ridiculous celebrity gossip and a bunch of other nonsense.

Eric Freischlad 2021-10-22

Installed this extension and now I don't have a New Tab page anymore. 10/10 :D

Dodo Mosleh 2021-04-24

Thank you!!! :)

Reliably works. Thank you, just what I was looking for. Very clean.

Peter Senna Tschudin 2021-03-08

Finally can get to use Chrome without these doodle things that are so distracting at times. Thank you!

James McManus 2021-01-15

Congratulations to the talented developer of this extension, who managed to succeed where a thousand Google/Chrome engineers flunked.

Benyamin Limanto 2020-11-17

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.

Lukas Cochran 2020-11-12

Would really like a dark mode

Jeremy 2020-11-02

It works

normal_rc 2020-08-07

Must have for any Chrome-based browser.

oskar lindqvist 2020-03-18

no distractions

Dmitri Lau 2020-03-06

This is a really useful extension and Google should make it the default. Really a must-have for new users.

Kerry O'Connor 2020-02-15

great, but how do i get the dark bg page ?

Jon McClay 2020-01-31

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.

Rubén Santiago 2019-12-06

It do what it is supposed to do, a blank new tab.

Job Ma 2019-10-09

选项根本点不开 不能自定义新窗口地址

Steven Ross 2019-06-26

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.

Patrick Caezza 2019-05-16

I have used this extension for years. Why chrome doesn't have this great feature built in is beyond me.

Friimynd Obliviat 2019-05-11

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

Moh Farawati 2018-12-31

Best extension ever. Exactly what I was looking for.

Carol DeLis 2018-11-29

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!

Chris woolly 2018-11-17

Works a treat - simple, quick and pain-free!

Anonymous 2018-11-12

it works, unlike other so called "New Tab" extensions i've tried - thanks!

Julian Montague 2018-09-09

Does exactly what it says: gives you a blank page for new tabs.

Perfect for me. I am a minimalist.

Shatanik Chakraborty 2018-02-24

Useful plugin. Highly recommend it.

Phillip Evans 2018-02-14

I'm sorry, I only wanted my new tabs to be blank. I didn't want a blank page when I open Chrome.

Sefa İYİ 2017-12-22

perfect, thanks... for giving a white page :)

Michael Costa 2017-12-21

Just wanted a clean new tab page- works great. Thank you!

许泳杰 2017-12-19

best new tab

Thrifty Merchant 2017-12-16

So great! I was looking for a way to avoid looking at google's stupid suggested daily searches.

Wade Dorrell 2017-11-21

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...

Zoblyn King 2017-11-16

THANK YOU.

Michael Lang 2017-09-30

Does exactly as advertised.

cubetu 2017-09-28

Fantastico
