Custom Button - Personalize Your Chrome Experience

"Custom Button" is a unique Chrome extension that provides users with the ability to personalize their browsing experience. It allows users to design a button with a special URL and icon. Users can set the extension to open the URL in the current tab, new tab, new window, popup window or directly on button. It also provides the feature to decide the domains in which it should function, using regular expressions and to receive notifications in case the domain does not correspond.

User reviews

I've been using Quick Home Button for ages which is unfortunately not MV3 compatible. Thankfully Custom Button is a perfect replacement, and more.

Great extension!

Not only did this not work. Why does it need to read my browsing history. A custom button has nothing to do with that!? Uninstalled and not recommended
