Doesn't say anywhere that this extension requires a subscription, and why a subscription?? One time fee at most makes sense, and that's pushing it.
Greed is insatiable: π€£ 35$ / Year We are talking about extremely trivial software here. A price of $3 for a lifetime license would be fair.
For some reason, this extension now requires access to dummysoftware's website. I suggest to uninstall
Did not work at all. New tab is still defaulting to Chrome://newtab
Fast New Tab Redirect is MUCH , MUCH faster than this....
Needs to select all on the address bar, or not put the cursor there in the first place.
Needs an update to fix autofocus that used to work but doesn't now. Please update for 5 stars
Issue with it no longer auto selecting the whole URL when opening a new tab. So you cannot just start typing. Otherwise, words a treat! (v1.2 on Windows with Chrome 61)
Looks like on Chrome for mac when you open a new tab it still sets focus to the page you want, but it doesn't auto select the url so you cant start typing to search. E.g. if you press cmd + t, you get a new tab looking like this "|some.com" and when you type "apples" to search for "apples" the result looks like this in the URL bar: "apples|some.com".
Doesn't work in incognito. Worked the first time, then defaulted back to new tab page. Works fine out of incognito. I'll stick with "New Tab Redirect" for now.
