About this extension
A calmer and faster way to start browsing
Mist replaces your default new tab with a lightweight and customizable start page.
Organize your favorite websites into shortcut groups, and customize the appearance without creating an account.
Main features
Private by design
Weather can use a city or postal code you enter, or an approximate IP-based city. It never requests precise browser geolocation, and the weather feature can be disabled at any time.
Shortcut icons are loaded through favicon service. Only the shortcut domain and normal connection information are sent for this visible shortcut feature; shortcut labels and other Mist preferences are not sent.
Mist contains no ads, analytics, or accounts. The optional feedback form contacts a developer-operated Netlify endpoint only when you choose to submit a message.
