User reviews

Really simple and awesome startpage, but when you try and use keyboard commands it just doesn't work. Pressing enter for the first time also breaks the export feature on chrome for some reason.

I started using it on firefox and am so happy it's in chrome now too. It's perfect. Everything i ever wanted in a start page. No BS, no ad garbage, just the things I want and need to surf where I need too! LOVE IT!
