Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

Dark New Tab, is a simple and very lite extension that enables you to open a new tab, completely empty with just a dark or white background color and three buttons at the top-left corner of the screen.

The default browser tab is usually packed with lots of items such as tiles, bookmarks, search-field, etc. If you prefer to have a simple and clean new tab, this add-on works just great for you. Simply add it to your browser and it works instantly. Just click on the new tab button on your browser and it opens a blank tab instead of the default one.

The default background color for the new tab is dark. If you prefer a white background color please press the - moon - button at the top-left corner of the screen (1st button from top). This toggle button will switch the background color and store the state in the memory. The second button on the left toolbar is for choosing a custom color for the background. If you want to change the default dark color for the new tab page, use this color chooser to find a new one. The third button is for the support page. If you have a feature request or found a bug to report, please press this button to open the support page. The last button is for making donations.

Like an earlier reviewer said, maybe instead check out dandydanny.org's extension also called Dark New Tab (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/mnjmegebbljjhpljjfjmkhgmokpmdbpo) and see if it meets your needs first. (Also like that reviewer, I have no connection to either extension; my motivation in posting this is solely and wholly the repulsion felt from this endless plague of monetized simple extensions.) So what's the problem with this extension? Not much -- it works fine, actually! So, use it if you don't like the alternatives. However, it's kind of a gross extension. Imagine encountering an extension that claims to make your new tab page "blank," "simple and clean," or "completely empty." And imagine that same extension replaces your new tab page with an impossible to hide advertisement to send money to the creator's PayPal, to be there in front of you *every* *single* *time* you open a new tab for the remainder of your whole Chrome-using lifetime. No, that'd be really silly, wouldn't it? Well, unfortunately, yes, that's exactly what this extension is. (Sure, there are more words after "completely empty," but, really? Those words directly contradict the meaning of "completely." The usage of the word is so forced.) There's no reason to require the buttons to be there. 99% of the times a tab is opened, no button is going to be interacted with except potentially the color toggle button. So, why not have a setting to optionally hide these buttons? They clash with the idea of the tab being "blank," "simple and clean," or "completely empty," don't they? Yet the support page says the extension "is so simple that it does not need any settings", as if there's not even a question of whether or not someone might desire this advertising "feature". If the extension is "so simple", then why does it need to even be monetized so blatantly (especially when an alternative currently exists)? If it were just the color toggle button, nothing would bug me much. The buttons *are* small, and again, the extension works fine. I'm only posting this for your awareness, to inform you that there is indeed another extension option that actually isn't a potential veiled excuse to have a money-making button appear on your screen several hundred times.
