- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13232477, 7 years agoFor me this is a fantastic replacement for the main page. Unfortunately not yet compatible with the latest Firefox version.
- Rated 4 out of 5by tipar, 7 years agoVery simple and customizable but it lacks of double column. I mean, I want only my most visited showing up, if I want 40 sites it does let you organize them in two or three columns so you have a long list to scroll down. I like that you can set black background though.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Taurean, 7 years agoI like the simplicity of this extension! One suggestion, though; i.e., a history search widget would make it even more convenient and useful.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13494752, 7 years agoNice! Does what it says and seems very customizable! Doesn't look very nice, and is not available on all platforms (android), though, so it can't function as a synced start page.

posted 7 years agoUnfortunately it isn't possible to replace the new tab page on Android. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13408942, 7 years agoREALLY EXCELLENT ! CAN ADD A GOOGLE SEARCH AREA ,
- Rated 5 out of 5by calraith, 7 years agoI like almost everything about this extension, except that I can't specify my own bookmark hierarchy root. Firefox won't let me create a new top-level Bookmarks folder, and my other Bookmarks folders have years of crap that I'd rather not have to drill down or have visible on my new tab page. So it'd be nice if I could specify the root as "Bookmarks Menu > New Tab Bookmarks" or similar.
If not for that, I'd be happy as a pig in poop. This extension seems fast, bordering on time travel. It's clean, handsome, and the weather feature is a nice touch. Unfortunately, the inflexible hierarchical root is a deal breaker for me.
Edit: I kludged a workaround by expanding a Bookmarks folder, moving a child folder to a new column, unchecking all the root folders in settings, then swapping the positions of the remaining two columns. All-in-all, although the setup isn't as graceful as it ought to be, the end result is worthy of a little generosity toward that fifth star. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12927224, 7 years agoThis addon alone prevented me from leaving firefox after the new tab page changes, I always wanted a new tab page in firefox similar to what Vivaldi provides out of the box, and this addon delivers, I can use my bookmarks for speed dial. Easy to modify, and backup your settings, couldn't really with for more!
- Rated 5 out of 5by iPharaon, 7 years agoДовольно долго пользовался данным расширением в Chrome и был очень доволен, теперь же данное шикарное расширение есть и для Firefox.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 6696096, 7 years agoGood Idea, but much slower than other NOT-SO-HUMBLE addons (even with most of the items unchecked).
Slower than the monstrous Photoshop-like FVD SpeedDial or adware StartMe. 5-7 seconds before any data is shown.Developer response
posted 7 years agoIt definitely should not be that slow, but I will try to optimize a few things in the next release. There are still some kinks I need to iron out since porting from Chrome. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13439247, 7 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by jambread, 7 years agoThank you for bringing this to Firefox. This is the best new tab page add-on, simple and customisable.
- Rated 5 out of 5by auptod, 7 years agoThe new tab page is broken in most browsers. Just having a clean and ultra customziable links of sites you visit regularly, is bliss. however, if it adds a support for firefox live rss, it'll become taht much more useful

posted 7 years agoUnfortunately the bookmarks API does not support Live RSS yet. You can follow https://bugzil.la/1276821 for progress on this issue. - Rated 5 out of 5by pwalm, 7 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13354519, 7 years agoMy most used addon on chrome. Thanks for porting to firefox
- Rated 5 out of 5by rohit1347, 7 years agoHad been a fan of this since using it on chrome. Neat layout, sophisticated enough, does the job for me.
