Features & Capabilities

New Tab Tweaker is a Firefox extension that transforms your new tab page from bland to beautiful. It lets you customize the background color and set your favorite wallpapers to display every time you open a new tab. Beyond visuals, you can set custom redirection and control top site visibility to suit your browsing style.

Is New Tab Tweaker Safe?

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.

New Tab Tweaker requires very minimum permissions.
