User reviews

Users find the extension useful for organizing bookmarks and providing quick access through the new tab page. However, many are frustrated that the search engine is forcibly changed to Bing without an option to switch back to Google, leading to distrust. Customization is limited, including a cap on the number of shortcuts and inability to reorder sections. Some users also note low-quality icons and lack of multi-language support. Overall, while the extension offers useful functionality, the forced Bing search and limited customization significantly detract from user experience.

Pros

Allows adding shortcuts for quick access to bookmarks and websites.
Provides a useful new tab page with bookmarks and visual layout aiding folder organization.
Helps with organizing bookmarks and accessing frequently used links easily.
Offers a visually clean and functional interface compared to other extensions.

Cons

Search engine is forcibly set to Bing without option to change or use Google, causing user frustration and distrust.
Limited customization options such as only allowing up to 10 shortcuts and inability to reorder dashboard/bookmarks sections.
Low quality or pixelated icons for shortcuts affecting visual appeal.
Lack of language support for several languages such as Chinese, Polish, and Russian.

This is a serious issue and should be fixed by Google. I thought (my bad) this extension was part of the Google Workspace Individual, as this my initial search "Gooogle workspace Individual extensions" gave me that impression. GOOGLE ! Why is this extension "Featured"? It's a scam. I first knowticed "yahoo!" search icon on top right of search windows, an thoght this was strange as i was doing my search from Google chrome in win 11 pc. DO NOT INSTALL THIS!

DON'T INSTALL Has no shortcut to google slides, search bar bar should not be used. Google needs to filter extensions like this. Why wait google? "" This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions."" Chrome Web Store is a joke!

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

New Tab for Google Workspace™ requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

New Tab for Google Workspace™ may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
