Glisters — New Tab Firefox

Glisters — New Tab

By: Firoz Add-on
Minimal, fully customizable new tab page — shortcuts, bookmarks sidebar, wallpapers, with cloud sync.

Features & Capabilities

Glisters is a minimal, highly configurable new tab page. Replace the default tab with your own shortcut grid, a bookmarks sidebar that edits your real browser bookmarks, optional wallpapers, and per-user cloud sync — no trackers, no ads, no bloat.

Shortcut grid:

  • Add tiles with auto-detected titles and icons.
  • Drag to reorder with smooth flip animations; paginate through multiple pages.
  • Open with Enter, new tab with Ctrl+Enter.
  • Command bar (/) for quick search, URL entry, or pasted image reverse search.

Bookmarks sidebar:

  • Press b to open a full keyboard-driven editor for your browser's real bookmarks bar.
  • Add, edit, delete, move, and drag-and-drop folders — every change writes straight to the browser.

Wallpapers:

  • Wallhaven-backed wallpaper pool with favourites, blur and monochrome options, and offline fallbacks.

Sync (optional):

  • Sign in with email and password to mirror your grid, settings, and favourites to the cloud — across devices and browsers.
  • Fully functional offline and local-only without signing in.

Configurable:

  • Tile size, grid columns and rows, gaps, labels, colours, wallpaper blur, monochrome, sidebar widths — everything adjustable from the settings drawer.

Privacy:

  • Local data stays in your browser's own storage. Sync only stores your save and sign-in, handled by Clerk. No analytics, no telemetry, no advertising.

Is Glisters — New Tab Safe?

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.

Glisters — New Tab requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. 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 Firefox add-on.
