Backdrop (Ambient) Chrome Extension
Extension stats
Extension summary
Make your new tab more beautiful and more useful with the following features:
• New wallpaper every day • Live weather for current location (°C/°F) • Choose between grayscale and colored weather icons • Lightweight, only the current image is stored on the device • Most visited sites
The design of the extension is inspired by Backdrop (now Ambient/Daydream) on the Google Chromecast. Users can choose to have the weather displayed with the original grayscale Backdrop icons or the new colorized Ambient icons. We also try to keep the extension as lightweight as possible and thus do not include the wallpapers in the extension.
