- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 17787922, 20 hours agoIt was very good until I discovered that it was asking for permissions like "browsing history"?!!! so I disabled it.

posted 20 hours agoPlease read the description of the add-on why this permission is need. It is really not okay to give an extension a poor rating simply because it requires a permission that is absolutely necessary for technical reasons. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14781693, 3 years agoAdds automatically "http://" to the URL which prevent from using values like "about:home".

posted 3 years agoThis doesn't make sense since "about:home" is the default new tab page and you woulnd't use this add-on at all to use it as new tab page.
Also it's not possible at all for WebExtensions to open about:home via the tabs API. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 17181494, 4 years ago🤯🤯🤯 Cannot just simply OPEN NEW TAB since now. WTF?
Without disturbing my brain with opening setup page instead again and again.
But why? Why?!
I need to have ability to open NOT only http or https as a new tab! What about "about:blank" AT LEAST? 🤨 - Rated 2 out of 5by miranda_escobedo, 4 years agoDon't know what is suddenly going wrong but this is taking forever to load

- Rated 2 out of 5by miwoj, 6 years agoafter opening new tab it takes 1-2 seconds for New Tab Override to load before it can be used.
too long for me, it breaks my flow. when i open new tab i want to start typing my search right away (same as in default empty new firefox tab). - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14198562, 7 years agoWhat's the point if the url bar is already filled and each time I have to clear it first to browse

- Rated 2 out of 5by Dick, 7 years agoI'm sure this works great for what it was designed for. However, I build my own Home Page using images on my harddrive as my link, not text. Because New Tab Override cannot load local images it's pointless.
