F.A.Q.

Q: You mentioned this is compatible with all kinds of web browsers, but I can't find the setting to change the New Tab page in mine. What do I do?

A: Some browsers don't allow changing the New Tab page. In such cases, you can use extensions like Fast New Tab Redirect for Chrome or New Tab Override for Firefox. Alternatively, you can set your start page (homepage) to the location of index.html.

Q: How do I use this on my phone?

A: Use a browser that allows you to change the New Tab page, or set your start page (homepage) to the location of index.html.

Q: Is mobile support available?

A: Yes, it is. However, you'll need to find a way to store index.html on your phone or host it, which I do not provide support for.

Q: Why should I export my settings?

A: In case you need to reinstall your browser or switch to a different one. Also, in rare instances, your browser may reset your settings. If that happens, you can import your settings so you won't have to set everything up again.

Q: I have a feature suggestion!

A: Feel free to open an issue or a pull request.

Q: I found a bug!

A: Please open an issue or a pull request.
