Top 10 Best New Tab Extensions for Chrome in 2025

User reviews

Users praise Speed Dial 2 for its high customization, ease of use, and syncing across devices. However, multiple users report recent updates causing loss of thumbnails and bookmarks without warning. The extension also triggers false antivirus warnings and has intrusive ads. Users desire better nested folder support and stability improvements, especially on Vivaldi and newer Chrome versions.

Pros

Highly customizable and adaptable with many options for organizing bookmarks.
Allows easy access to saved websites with graphical speed dial interface.
Cross-device syncing keeps bookmarks consistent on multiple computers and browsers.
Pro version provides additional valuable features, such as custom thumbnail images and background customization.
Lightweight and clean user interface that improves browsing efficiency.

Cons

Recent updates caused loss of thumbnails and bookmarks with no warning or recovery options.
Extension triggers false security warnings from some antivirus software, notably Bitdefender.
Persistent and intrusive promotional pop-ups (e.g., 25% off ads) violate Chrome Store policy.
Lacks nested folder support for organizing speed dials into folders within groups.
Sometimes buggy or crashes on certain browsers, especially Vivaldi and latest Chrome versions.

⚠️ On May 27th, 2025, Bitdefender started incorrectly flagging Speed Dial 2 as a potential security risk. This is a false positive - our extension is completely safe and has been thoroughly reviewed by the Chrome Web Store team. The warning you're seeing is not based on any actual security concerns, but rather an incorrect classification by Bitdefender's security system. We are already working with the Bitdefender Team to resolve this matter. In the meantime, you can remove this warning by visiting https://www.speeddial2.com/sync2/test_account directly in your browser and clicking "add it to your Exceptions list." You can track the status of this incident and learn more on our dedicated page: https://www.speeddial2.com/page/bitdefender Michal Speed Dial 2

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.

Speed Dial 2 New tab requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

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.
