User reviews

Where is the 'show most visited sites' selection that was previously available to have 8 shortcuts to most visited websites? This feature suddenly went missing. It is one of the most valued features of the Bing webpage. PLEASE ENABLE IT.

doesn't work. just shows a blank white page

So this extension only halfway delivers. It integrates the daily Bing wallpaper, which is beautiful. It has a Bing search bar, which is handy, especially if you're part of the rewards program. It shows the local weather and, if you click it, it will take you to the weather details on the Bing search page. Cool, so far so good! However, the store page advertises the presence of a to-do list and the ability to add quick links. There is a setting on the page to enable or disable the To-Do list. However, enabled or not, the To-Do list itself simply does not exist. And the quick links feature? Completely MIA. Overall, this is a half-baked extension that does not deliver on its promises.
