Minimalist Tab Extension

It only shows you the essential two things you need to keep your week on track: the time and date.

Nothing special, not overcrowded nor eye distracting. Just a minimalist new tab page for your productivity and peace of mind.

James Blanc (ID: 00000041d81de816) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/05/2023 The AdBlocker works perfectly. I haven't seen an annoying ad since I downloaded it. I was so impressed I even upgraded to the Pro version. Worth every penny.

György Durbák (ID: 0000007794c70e6a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/11/2023 It works like it is supposed to. Blocks almost all ads. Highly recommend

icon

Jana Drahokoupilova (ID: 000000af9066f68d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/09/2023 All ads were blocked as expected. It's a great tool, does exactly what it's designed to do, without any problems.

icon

Joshua Beck (ID: 000000d08d3f2228) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/02/2023 Immediately changes your search engine to Bing. Just another headache to figure out when I'm trying to install something to reduce clutter. Garbage extension.

Softi Chill (ID: 000000deed062339) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 01/16/2023 It actually works! It doesn't always block the ads immediately, but it blocks them and that's what matters. Very useful for browsing websites like youtube. My only complaint is that it automatically puts searches in safe mode
