Enzo GD - Gianvittorio Danese (ID: 000000570fada69d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/19/2024 A wonderful extension, far better than the other speed dials. Is clean and light. The only thing I miss is the ability to open a new tab on the last folder in use. Hope is possible for future releases. Well done and five stars for this extension (with an original name indeed ;) Another missing feature would love seeing is the ability to add URL to get the thumbnail images of the dial. BTW: I am editing this review to expose a concern regarding the last (2024) Chrome notification reading: "This extension may soon no longer be supported", I wonder what would happen to the extension since chrome is suggestion to find alternatives and that would a real pity.

Mike L (ID: 000000349fc1dedf) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 11/14/2023 Nice and small app, maybe could do with a few extra features - like variable text size & colour. Creating new dials loads quickly which is a bonus - unlike similar apps. However, the JSON backup file doesn't work and unfortunately the developer doesn't respond to questions. At time of writing no updates for 9 months, hope this doesn't impact future bug-fixes. Apart from the bugs this is recommended.

Sir Thanksalot (ID: 0000002df53e34ce) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/20/2023 Thank you dev you fixed so many things compared to when this ext. was first released. Question, does this ext. use cpu when nothing is going on? asking for a couple of potatoes, thx :)

Greeff R (ID: 0000000dbaea1447) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/27/2023 One single request. Add a switch in the settings that prohibits dragging speed dials. Thank you!
