Features & Capabilities

Humble New Tab Page is a Chrome extension that transforms your browser's new tab into a personalized dashboard. It offers a simple and clean design focused on usability and aesthetics. Users can customize features such as bookmarks, most visited sites, recently closed tabs, and real-time weather, all arranged in a custom layout.

The extension is lightweight and fast-loading, ensuring a smooth browsing experience. Its key strength lies in its high degree of customization: drag and drop folders to create new columns or reorder content; adjust font, colors, spacing, and other design elements through the options menu. Please note, some known limitations include settings not syncing across Multi-Account Containers and restrictions on opening certain URLs like file:/// and about: pages.

User Reviews

Reviewers consistently praise Humble New Tab Page for strong customization, attractive design, and making the New Tab page far more useful for bookmark access. Multiple users note cross-browser availability but report favicon/icon problems on Firefox (local sites often lack icons) and other feature-parity differences from Chrome. Expect to spend some time in settings to get your ideal layout.

Pros

Highly customizable bookmark-focused new-tab layout
Visually attractive / well-designed interface
Makes the New Tab page noticeably more useful and convenient
Available across browsers (users report Chrome/Firefox/Brave usage)

Cons

Missing favicons/icons for some bookmarks in the Firefox version (especially local sites)
Feature-parity issues between Chrome and Firefox (e.g., differing favicon behavior, some features unavailable)
Requires some initial time in the settings to configure the preferred layout

I use this extension for many many years, on Chromium based browsers it works a little bit better, for example the icons are seamless there, why in the Firefox based browsers the icons can't be from the bookmarks themselves?

Is Humble New Tab Page 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.

Humble New Tab Page requires a few sensitive permissions. 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.
