Disclaimer: Know Your Limitations
It's important to note that the New Tab Redirect Chrome extension is specifically designed to change your new tab page, not your homepage. If your browser is set to load the New Tab page as your homepage, there may be some unintended consequences. Additionally, as the extension performs a "redirect," it does not have control over address bar highlighting or focus.
The New Tab Redirect Chrome extension is not affiliated with Google or Google Chrome. Google Chrome is a registered trademark of Google, Inc. The "Popular Pages" feature of the extension is sourced from www.alexa.com/topsites, and the extension has no affiliation with Google, Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, Wikipedia, Digg, Slashdot, or any other page listed. Please be aware that using these pages or any other custom URL as a replacement for your new tab page means you are still bound by any agreement between you and that site or service.

Nice, simple
Very good. The blinking soccer championship banner was supper annoying. It's nice that you can replace it with about:blank.
This version is outdated and no longer compatible with modern browsers. Try the latest one instead. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/new-tab-redirect-and-tab/fdnjdiboighnbnandlbdcceakpnkdaad
I cannot see, after half an hour of clicking on everything I can see on my screen, how to add the URL I want as the home page. It must be hidden somewhere, but I simply cannot see it.
Thanks. Another Google stupidity... Why opening the "no url" tab by default ? Why not letting the user DECIDE ? Mystery... PS : for user having issue, uninstall the extension, restart chrome completely, reinstall the extension, then the first tome you do CTRL+T Chrome will alert you about a page modification, you MUST says "KEEP".
The fact that brave needs this extension is... well extremely uncomfortable. Good to know that there is an extension like this. It is simple It's easy to understand It's easily installed
not working for me
Doesn't work for local files. (Permissions given as described in extension options, file is readable, etc.)
This works for a single browser. Doesn't seem to work when I select 'sync url with other browsers'. Also, entering changing the URL doesn't work. Just sticks to the 'New tab redirect' page.
It works perfectly! I really thought my browser was able to do this itself until I realized it can't, so this saves an extra step by not having to press home every time I open a new tab in Chrome! That's a lot of saved clicks which equates to saved time and money!
this is the answer to my prayer lol.
BEST EVER i did have to find secret settings in chrome so i could open HTML files anyways THIS IS AWESOME
Works reliably, thanks. For those looking to load local files, you can easily 'write' your own extension with a very basic manifest.json. That works great, only you may need to fiddle wil CORS headers to make things work from a file source.
Some extensions require your new tab page be set to their extension to use their extension, this allows you to override that
bro! i can log into it !
This is perfect, just what i have been looking for.
good
Love the extension, works great! But doesnt work on the new Comet Browser. Would love to see support for that.
Great extension, just what I needed. Simple and functional.
Great
Used to work well, but now it loses the configured redirect URL every couple of days. Too bad - useful extension when it works.
simple and does the work that chrome should have provided as a default setting! great job
Simple, lightweight, and it works. 10/10
i made chatgpt my default search engine with an addon, wanted to access gmail or google.com faster, so added new tab redirect to google.com which made everything complete, thank you!
Does what it says, but takes the focus out of address bar, which is very bad
Should be browser-native, but this is nearly as good! Thank you.
Does what it says on the tin! Let's me set my homelab dashboard as my new tab page in Brave.

User-Friedly easy to use Not complex I guess my edge need it too!
Chrome Settings > On Startup: "New Tab Redirect is controlling this setting" Just doesn't work. Whatever address I use the new tab is always Google search.
