- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16013521, 2 years agoI've seen where it was commented that someone had a broken system since the add-on was not working on that system. Well, there's obviously something wrong with my system. The add-on works perfectly on my laptop. I'll let you know what I do find wrong with my laptop though.
- Rated 4 out of 5by IamAllan, 2 years agoUp until the March 3, 2023 update, it's been great! All of a sudden, my browser started crashing.
So I disabled all the extensions, and turned them on one by one. As soon as I turned on NTO, the browser crashed. As soon as I shut it off, the crashing stopped.
Still have to give 4 stars, as it's been great, otherwise. - Rated 5 out of 5by 天灭中共退党团队保平安, 2 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by PHS, 2 years agoDoes what it's supposed to do. Best of all, it allows me to put the focus on the search bar in my Google home page instead of the focus being on the URL address - which the competitor 'New Tab HOMEPAGE' does not. Thank you.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13552953, 2 years agoWhy this extension works only for New Tab (not for New Window)?

- Rated 1 out of 5by Kay, 2 years agoSet a dark new tab page, for some reason during the already sluggish feeling redirect, the extension flashbangs my eyes with a wall of white every time. Seemingly no option to change that, doesn't happen when redirecting an existing tab to the wanted page, nor with other new tab apps.
Edit: Sad to see the dev rage at the review instead of fixing the issue - I'd have been happy to change the review had my issues been fixed (or one of them, to merit a change at least), now I'm just highly motivated to find a way to turn reply updates off and never touch the extension again. I get you're likely underpaid or not paid at all for this, but neither am I paid to be your bug tester.
Yes, I think I'll use the review function how it's meant to be used, to notify people who look at the reviews about the app's downsides.
I have nothing against you personally. The extension was frustrating and a waste of time to try to make work as desired, which I nonetheless believed I could do because of the numerous high reviews. My experience didn't reflect that. The statistical point of user reviews isn't to rate 5 stars because while it sucked for me it might work for other people - I'm sure it does.Developer response
posted 2 years agoSo the add-on works in general and there is only a visual annoyance for you, nothing else. And still you think instead of reporting an issue to me so that I can investigate and try to fix it you should rate this add-on with the worst rating that is possible. Bummer. Very frustrating for developers who spend their spare time to offer free extensions to other users. - Rated 5 out of 5by Lee chee keong, 2 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17775966, 2 years agodoesn't let you use the firefox homepage as the new tab page
Developer response
posted 2 years agoThis is neither possible for a WebExtension nor necessary. It's a built-in feature of Firefo to use the Firefox home page as new tab page. Therefore it's inappropriate to give a bad rating for this add-on. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16897516, 2 years agoI have been a Start.Me user for longer than I can remember and am delighted to have this added to Firefox...thank you.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Skeptic, 2 years agoI've been using this extension for a while and haven't had any problems. In fact, I consider it as essential. Very simple to use.
