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:

- Congratulations to the talented developer of this extension, who managed to succeed where a thousand Google/Chrome engineers flunked.
- Benyamin Limanto
- 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
- Would really like a dark mode
- Jeremy

- oskar lindqvist

- Dmitri Lau
- This is a really useful extension and Google should make it the default. Really a must-have for new users.
- Kerry O'Connor
- great, but how do i get the dark bg page ?
- Jon McClay
- Thank you, Nick Vogt. This simple extension brought me more joy than watching The Last Jedi, which I also loved.
- Name Last Name
- 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
- It do what it is supposed to do, a blank new tab.
- Job Ma
- 选项根本点不开 不能自定义新窗口地址
- Steven Ross
- 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
- I have used this extension for years. Why chrome doesn't have this great feature built in is beyond me.
- Friimynd Obliviat
- 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
- Best extension ever. Exactly what I was looking for.

- Sefa İYİ

- best new tab
- Thrifty Merchant
- So great! I was looking for a way to avoid looking at google's stupid suggested daily searches.
- Wade Dorrell
- 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
- THANK YOU.
- Michael Lang
- Does exactly as advertised.
