Compare Chrome extensions: App AutoStart vs New Tab with Apps

Short description
Automatically launch applications on startup. Great for setting up app-specific user profiles	Override the new tab page with Google Chrome Apps page, does not need many permissions
Full summary
App AutoStart allows you to configure applications to start when the browser starts. Use this to specify which apps you want to launch when Chrome is started. This is also perfect for creating unique user profiles per-app, normally when you do this, you have to launch the user account, go to chrome://apps, launch the app, then close the window that opened. But with App AutoStart, you can configure the app to automatically launch and check a setting that closes the main window. So you end up with a single-app user profile.	This extension overrides the new tab page with chrome apps page. This app does not need any special permissions.
