User reviews

It's good for what it does but for 4 star: 1 - Allow custom speed dial links 2 - Allow choosing different or custom search engine 5 star: 3 - Open source to gain trust

It gives you a better alternative new tab, but the personalized icons are fiddly. Trying to click one will generally move it to a different spot instead of opening the page in question. Arranging the icons intothe order you would like is like moving in slow motion. Needs more work

Need to be able to upload from PC for background photos most url backgrounds for speed dial don't work anyway. Also links need to open in new window. Cheers.
