Experience the world with every tab
World View Wallpaper Launcher Extension
Stunning images from around the world, brought directly to your new tab page.
Features:
- Apps list: Convenient access to all of your Chrome apps. The list fades into the background when not in use.
- Custom text or clock: Include your own custom inspirational message front and center, see the current time, or keep it zen.
- Runs offline: enjoy it whether you're at home or traveling.
- Features gallery-quality photographs from around the world.
- Highly customizable: Show or hide your list of Chrome apps, change the size of the clock, and much more!
- Based on time: By default, it acts like a time zone clock, showing you photographs of locations around the world in their time zone. If you set it to use local timezone, you'll see photographs from around the world taken at the same time of day.
