User reviews

Aurora: New Tab & Bookmark Manager is praised for its clean design, useful bookmark management, and additional features like weather and notes. It serves as a strong alternative to similar extensions, enhancing productivity and visual appeal. However, users frequently note limitations such as missing key bookmark management features (copy-paste for folders, drag-and-drop), inability to open system links, lack of folder expand/collapse, no sync/login functionality, and less convenient calendar/task integration. Despite minor issues, many users find it a valuable daily tool.

Pros

Visually appealing and well-designed user interface with beautiful backgrounds and customizable dashboard.
Effective bookmark management, especially helpful for users with many bookmarks.
Includes useful features like weather, notes, to-do lists, and calendar integration (though calendar integration has some usability issues).
Considered a great alternative to other new tab extensions like Momentum and Papaly, with ease of use and clean design praised.
Enhances productivity by organizing bookmarks, tabs, and additional tools in one place.

Cons

Lack of certain essential bookmark management features such as copy-paste for bookmark folders and drag-and-drop support.
Bookmarks cannot open system links like chrome://extensions or chrome://chrome-urls.
Some UI limitations like inability to expand/collapse bookmark folders, reducing organization for users with many bookmarks.
No login or sync feature, so users cannot recreate their setup across multiple devices.
Calendar and task management features open in separate windows instead of pop-ups, reducing convenience for some users.

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to.

High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Aurora: New Tab & Bookmark Manager requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
