The best 5 extensions for Google Chrome
- 8 years ago
If you didn’t think of that’s no big surprise you, it’s a tool that is so ubiquitous to our tech habits that it is the digital equivalent of lungs. Well, today we are going to look at ways to make your browser even better – with the five best Google Chrome app.
For all you YouTube music fans, UpNext is a must have. This small extension allows you to find any song from both SoundCloud and YouTube’s vast catalog, letting you filter music by category, and even by what is successful on Reddit. When you find a song you like you can create your own playlist and save it online. All this without opening a single tab as the music plays in the background.
If you are anything like me when you browse you open dozens upon dozens of tabs, which slowly consume resources until your boss comes over and asks why your computer is running at half the speed of everyone else’s. Well the The Great Suspend extension stops this being a problem. With this active, you can suspend all your tabs so they sit in the background doing nothing. You can even set it to automatically suspend after a period of inactivity and set different rules for different pages.
If opening a tab in Google Chrome is too bland for you need Momentum, an extension that fills new empty tabs with information about the exact time, a personalized greeting, an inspirational phrase, the temperature, a section of your most common links, a search engine bar, and even a list of reminders to do not forget anything you have planned to do during the day. The best homepage imaginable.
Every day you have to fill in dozens of online forms. Sign into Google, log onto Facebook – or worse one of these less commonly used pages where you can never remember the password. Dashlane is a password manager that logs into web services for you. Just install the extension, and whenever it detects form it will fill it in for you, especially user names and passwords. Remember though, if you already use PasswordBox or LastPass, this option is already available to you.
If when you navigate the web you frequently find yourself stumbling across sites in other languages that you struggle to navigate, then you need Google Translate. This comprehensive extension allows you to know the exact meaning of all those words that you are not 100% of – or indeed that you have no clue about. All you have to do is let I know your native tongue, then whenever you select a foreign world it will automatically display the translation. It’s even possible to have hear words or whole phrases spoken, and translate entire pages.
We know there are more 1000s more extensions for Chrome – but these are the five we think stand out, if you disagree let us know in the comments. I’ll be back in seven days with the top five Windows 10 exclusive apps – so if you can think of any let us know. Until then, like or dislike this video to let us know what you thought, and I’ll see you in a week.
