User reviews

Yet Another Speed Dial is widely regarded as one of the best and most reliable speed dial extensions for Chrome, admired for its simplicity, functionality, and clean UI. Users appreciate its ease of configuration and performance. However, recent updates have caused issues with customizing thumbnail images, which several users find frustrating. Some also noted column number limitations and desired more control over animations and additional features such as dial resizing. Overall, it remains a top choice but would benefit from fixes and enhancements.

Pros

Highly praised for its clean, simple, and modern interface.
Very functional and reliable as a speed dial extension.
Easy to configure, flexible, and fast in operation.
Stands out compared to other speed dial extensions on Chrome.
Regular updates and good developer support appreciated.

Cons

Recent updates have broken the thumbnail image customization feature, preventing users from changing thumbnails.
Limitations on the number of columns (e.g., inability to select 6 columns) reported.
Lack of animation control leads to usability issues when opening new tabs.
Missing some advanced features like resizing dials and opening new tabs in last used folders.

Edit : Thank you for resolving the issue! Latest version broke the flow and decreased the column by -1 with no option to revert to the column structure of the last version and no option to manual adjustment. Columns are more centered now, which leaves a lot of empty space on the sides of the main page. It's not bad, but there should be an option to not have that much wasted space. If you make changes please consider backwards compatibility, lost functionality, or user interaction elements. Otherwise its real rating is a 5/5. It's fast, clean, optimized, small in size, and does not steal your data.

That's really the best speeddialer interface, thank you. Just a remark though, recently the image thumbnail management feature has been broken ... Both URL mode and file loading mode don't work anymore to customize thumbnails. Will they be fixed please? Thank you.

Estaba funcionando bien, pero con la actualización de Abril de 2025 ya no te permite usar la imagen que tu quieras en las miniaturas, si haces una nueva y detecta el logo/imagen del sitio, no te deja cambiarla y no importa lo que hagas esa imagen se queda en definitiva. A ver si pueden arreglar esa falla, que no es catastrófica, pero si molesta.
