This is the best bookmarks dial available in the Chrome store. I was using a different one before but it was discontinued. After that I found Visual and doing the same job. I will take a little bit time to me used to it, but in general is quite the same. It could have a option to adjust the transparency of the icons. Maybe there is and I didn't find it. Thank you to the creator!

I really like this extension — it’s simple, clean, and very useful as a visual speed dial for my bookmarks. However, some favicons are not being retrieved correctly, such as for Google Keep and a few other sites. It would be great if you could improve or revise the favicon-fetching method to support more websites. Thanks for the great work!

I’m not quite sure how to explain the problem clearly, but I wish I could provide a video to better demonstrate the issue. I’m not sure if it’s just me, but the screen continues to load endlessly. Even when I try to return to the normal view, it does not finish loading. When I use it as a browser or in that mode, it loads indefinitely or displays the spinning circle. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the extension, but unfortunately, that did not resolve the issue. I also attempted to adjust the settings, but any changes either revert to default or do not seem to take effect, especially with the background feature. This appears to be a wonderful extension, and I would truly love to use it. However, I am currently encountering what seems to be a bug or glitch. Since I am new to this particular extension, I am not entirely sure how to proceed. Thank you very much for taking the time to read this. I would sincerely appreciate it if this issue could be looked into. Please excuse any mistakes in my English. Because I am unsure whether this issue is due to a bug or something on my end, I feel it would be unfair to leave either a positive or negative review at this time.

This is the best Speed dial. I have tried several speed dials in the chrome web store, but Visual Bookmarks is by far the best. I would like to ask the developer to make everything work properly on Android Device as well. Thank you very much.

I don't like giving a low rating. But, really -- the shortcuts on the new tab are shortcuts to existing bookmarks and not to the URLs themselves -- you can't delete a shortcut on the tab page without deleting the originating bookmark in your bookmarks folder -- why do i want shortcuts to the folders? and why can't i turn off this "feature"? -- why do i want all of the shortcuts on my bookbar bar repeated on the tab page? i don't get the logic at all. i want the tab page to hold bookmarks that are not immediately available right in front of me but which i use frequently and are *not* on the bookmarks bar. :/ It looks good. it's fairly easy to use. remember not to delete any of the "visual bookmarks" unless you intend to delete the access to the site altogether.

A great extension! Can someone tell me what happened in the recent update? Which part of the extension is no longer working? v6.7.0 Removed Clearbit (The service is closing).

Zdenko 2025-04-01

Definitely much better than FVD Speed ​​Dial.

Damjan Ilic 2025-03-07

Absolut winner. So much lighter and faster than FVD Speed Dial. Also your bookmarks will never just disappear to make you buy premium. Suggestion: Option to open all bookmarks in the folder. Suggestion 2: A discussion page where we can leave feedbacks and suggestions.

SATISH KUMAR 2025-02-19

I dont understand why many start page extensions miss this simple logic, bookmarks from bookmarks bar easy to import and maintain than manually putting in linkssssss. This is the best implementation of such idea

Ron Spi 2025-01-07

Thank you for this excellent and fast visual bookmark extension. I want to move away from FVD Speed Dial, but I MUST have Groups. Aside from having Folders at the Address Bar and accessing each folder as a group of Speed Dials, is there a better way to create groups?

Aga Men None 2024-12-18

BEST ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chaz B 2024-12-15

Beautifully thought out and love the options for customization. I have noticed an issue though: For developer - on more than a couple of shopping websites that are accessed through this extensions Google searchbar, the Paypal payment option will not proceed. It won't even open the window to do so. I assume it's because it is not recognizing the path or thinks it's not secure or something. Is there a way to fix this or should I just go to the regular Google page when shopping?

Shubhankar 2024-11-19

very helpful. I have been looking for something for very longtime. Its easy and simple to use. Great work by the developer

Tani Eisenstein 2024-10-22

Simple & Awesome!

Vahid Kheradmand 2024-09-17

I'm disabling this extension because now it's needs "Read data you copy and paste" access! It looks good and works well, if the extra unnecessary permission is removed, I'd gladly use it agian

KVO 2024-08-15

nice

Jimwel Hindang 2024-08-12

i love this extension. its okay but i slightly dislike the black thingy behind icons when previews are turned off. it would be good if we can customize it more (removing the black square thingy behind icons or make it smaller to group the bookmarks or the icons more closer). also, other icons are missing :'> pls update thankzs

Aravind V 2024-07-12

This is the one I have been looking for! Simple, clean and the best bookmarks speed dial. Thank you so much for creating this useful extension.

Артем Федулов 2024-07-07

Looks promising

m 2024-06-13

Really well done! Thank you very much! The only suggestion I have is a clock and weather feature like your WanderTab extension. That would make it perfect!

Евгений Олегович 2024-04-19

Отличное приложение!

Ahmed Kadry 2024-04-10

Perfect and the automatic thumbnails refresher is a bliss, but can you add coloring to the folders and try to find a stacking way that could reveal the whole website name. thanks

Samuel Ubinas 2024-04-05

Honestly one of the best (and my all time favorite) extensions on here. Not only does it work as intended, it does so without a hint of lag or slowdown. 10/10!

Luise Grice 2024-04-05

Installing this extension was a breeze! I'd love if you could add images to each bookmark folder, or some kind of design. Exactly what I was after. Thank You!

Sirjan Bhatt 2024-03-11

It very good but the panel width is not working in kiwi android I can't change it goes back to 70

David Glasgow 2024-01-18

Loving this extension—just enough options to be comfortably customized, but also fairly zero-effort. One request: it would be great to be able to set the "Default folder to show" to "Last Viewed," rather than always having to navigate out of the same folder to get where I'm going..... 🤞🏻

reza nick 2024-01-13

10/10 must have extension, it works really well with no lag or bugs. Only thing missing is a way to backup custom thumbnails that you have added, so you can use it on another PC. If there is a way of doing this please let me know.

Senthi Sri 2023-12-31

After searching for a while, I discovered a superior extension for organizing all my Chrome bookmarks. спасибо!

Phased WishPromise 2023-11-20

Great addon but when i'm trying to add bookmark using the (+) button, then i start writing the url, for example (https:**//**www.google.com) i can't write it because the new update when i press on (/) it moves me to the search. Please fix.

Honest Word 2023-11-18

Very good addon. Could you add the feature of making each folder a different color, please? Thank you

우동윤 2023-11-05

It would be nice to have a setting that doesn't change the panel size when the window size changes, and it would be nice to be able to adjust the panel spacing. 😆

Почти идеально:) Молодцы разрабы. Очень удобное и полезное расширение. Лучшее из многих. Но есть нюанс. Я не знаю, насколько это возможно, но было бы классно, что ссылку на табло можно было добавить прямо со страницы сайта, а не вбивать вручную. Спасибо, нашёл. Теперь всё отлично.

Evgeniy Pystogov 2023-10-24

Наконец то я нашел лучшее расширение для визуальных закладок, осталось только дождаться портирования его на рыжий хвостатый браузер :)

I have been using this extension for about close to 1 year. Like many other needs or tools for my browser, I had to review and try at least 15 to 20 different extensions that did not work, did not do what they stated, or had requirements that I did not like (such as having to register or sign-up, etc.). Visual Bookmarks has no such requirements and it simply works for what I wanted - a functioning "speed dial" to quickly access and open whatever bookmarks I choose. So many of these types of extensions want to put ALL of your bookmarks in a list or other type method for fast access. With this extension, I was able to choose about 10 important bookmarks that I want fast access to -- that is it. The extension is updated regularly, is not intrusive, and it is visually appealing. An A+ for me. Good extensions are getting harder to come by these days. Thank you for a great extension Ivan.

Спасибо за отличную работу, очень нужное расширение! Добавлю лишь что хотелось бы чтобы логотипы сайтов заполнялись в полное поле табов, как у оперы

Yaroslav Leyn 2023-10-15

Very nice extension! But after 6 months, a bug appeared. When the "focus on the search bar" setting is enabled, the tabs open endlessly or the setting doesn't work at all. Please check out this problem. UPD: Thank you for fast fix. Well-deserved 5 stars

Александр Сорсман 2023-10-14

Хотелось бы режим вывода папок в качестве табов. В целом отличное расширение, легкое и простое. Отличная замена Speed Dial 2.

Nico Shiki 2023-10-09

Incredibly good extension, preview images in basically every other bookmark manager is broken, it works great here. Easy and to use an intuitive interface too.

DL7 Media 2023-09-29

Póki co bardzo dobrze się zapowiada. Szkoda jedynie, że brakuje opcji, która otwierałaby rozszerzenie jako "nakładkę" na obecną kartę w przeglądarce, a nie zawsze jako nowe okno. Gdyby taka możliwość została wprowadzona, to byłby to absoluty top!

Romman D 2023-09-29

Есть что улучшать, но и в таком виде уже отличное расширение.

AV Va 2023-09-17

Thank you for the extension and blessings in Jesus Christ name.

5/5 весь необходимый минимальный функционал с автоматическим созданием вкладок на главной странице как в классической Опере. Сделайте вкладки как в обычном хроме круглые, а то маленькая иконка в большом полупрозрачном квадрате получается.

sally 2023-09-05

1. Добавьте возможность убрать графу поиска и оставлять только закладки 2. Добавьте круглые закладки, а не только квадратные

Tanaka Takeshi 2023-09-04

Very useful extension! I feel the search bar is too high, so it would be nice to have an option to lower the position.
