Spencer M (ID: 0000002054b01c77) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 04/14/2023 Makes you pay $10 to do basic functions such as adding a new page, total cash grab.

David Wire (ID: 0000004a0a68d71b) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 02/28/2023 Amazing customizability, I wish it had the capacity to middle-click to open dials in a new tab!

icon

Victor Rotaru (ID: 000000be3708d4e9) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/18/2021 One of the best speed dials I've ever used. All things I need in just one page. It includes notes, calendar, calculator, time, weather etc. and the last but not least which I use the most To Do List as a Task Manager. Never had one of those in a speed dial.

Dale Patch (ID: 000000e1cf275468) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/12/2021 This extension is simple without extra bloat but still feature filled enough to get a lot done. Great if you want a visual way to organize your sites and calendar notes.

Franco R Soto (ID: 000000d5e514a4c7) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/24/2021 This extension is awesome!! Is, by far, the best speed dial extension. Here is my feedback, only 3 things: 1.- Please add a function or an option to allows me that the portrait, image or thumbnail of any page, charge automatically, and the title too. 2.- Please add an option like "open bookmarks in other tab". and finally, 3.- Please configure the icon of the GridsUP to show an option that allows choose any folder that I have created. This is all, thank you!!
