My Homepage is a very useful extension which loads your Home Page whenever you open a new tab.

User reviews
Pros
- Allows users to set their own homepage, ensuring new tabs open the desired page rather than default or unwanted pages.
- Simple and effective functionality that many users appreciate for customizing their browsing experience.
- Works well to override Firefox's default new tab page and open a preferred homepage.
Cons
- Focus remains on the address bar instead of the search box or main content area on the opened homepage, reducing usability.
- Randomly opens unwanted advertisement tabs directing to the developer's blog, which is intrusive and frustrating.
- Does not support custom local files as homepages (e.g., file:// URLs), limiting flexibility for some users.

When a new tab is opened, the cursor moves to the address bar, not the search box, on the newly opened page. Can you please fix this anomaly?

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.
My Homepage requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious.
This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on
Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been
around, and other signals about the
Firefox add-on. 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 Firefox add-on.
My Homepage is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
