What is Custom Button?
"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.

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

It's good! I only wish even more buttons could be included. But, it's better than nothing that's for sure. Thanks a lot!
