Group Speed Dial is praised for its customization, stability, multi-browser support, and active maintenance. Users appreciate its seamless synchronization and robust backup features. However, some report issues with data loss after updates, performance slowdowns when managing many groups, and missing UI customization options. Minor annoyances include problems with new tab opening behavior and incomplete translations. Overall, it stands out as a feature-rich and reliable speed dial add-on favored over alternatives like FVD.

I used FVD for years, so glad I found this one it is much better. No forced search bar and very customizable. great support when I couldnt find a setting, Local and cloud backups I cannot fault it. I'm very pleased.. Long may it continue

Well it worked well for some time. A great alternative to FVD. Took a while to set up everything as needed but was worth it...then. I'm guessing they've updated. So all my sites and setup had gone and it wants me to do it all again.. I won't I'm not going to waste my time but I am very annoyed about it.

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.

Group Speed Dial requires a lot of sensitive permissions. 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 an Edge add-on.

Group Speed Dial is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
