Reviews & Comments of ProductivityTab — Custom Homepage Dashboard chrome extension

I really wanted to like this: I even signed up for the Pro upgrade. However, beginning to use it: 1) It would not connect to Google Drive: "Doesn't comply with Google's OAuth 2.0 policy." Developer did not respond to support requests. 2) "The Atlantic" widget allowed me to log in, however, I could not access the home page or any articles: therefore, useless. SO, my experience is that: they take my money and provide nothing. Caveat emptor.

great for productivity just like the name says

Seems OK

The Iframe Widget Doesn't Save Properly So When You Maximize The Widget Then The Custom Site You Chose Reverts To Wikipedia

Just what I needed

Has ads,

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING. Exactly what I was looking for, only better. I thought I'd have to purchase some kind of advanced dashboard solution, monthly perhaps! Just wow.

This is awesome! It's incredibly flexible and makes my homepage near entirely customizable, even without the pro version.

Same as iChrome. The extension seems very useful. But, I wish the developers mentioned the subscription fee in description.

全部消えたのだが！！！！！！！！！！

In March, 2020 (v3.0.43.4) there are 3 different iChrome extensions for Chrome! Of these, this one is the 'Homepage' edition, which doesn't take over your new tab. Also, the dev announced a name change to Productivity Tab. Highly customizable. Keep backups (download) whenever you are editing the pages, to protect against glitches. I'd love to see iChrome as a web login (not just Chrome extension).

I'd give zero stars if I could. Every single time I try to edit the dashboard it crashes. Totally useless.

it's a great extrension. Ican't wait for new widgets to be available....

I'm going to give it a few days, but probably will go back to Yahoo! One of the most important things to me is the stock quotes, but adding a tab reset the stocks to the FANG stocks. I don't invest in FANG stocks, but I do want to see the NASDAQ and S&P, plus the few stocks I own long- and short-term.

All the features and widgets work now on pro. This is such a great home page for productivity and pro is only 2$ a month. Totally worth it to me!

I've used this extension for over two years, this latest update really brought it down, the trash icon is useless and downright ugly, when you can just drag the widget to the top to remove it. I do not use Bing at ALL, therefore, I set a custom Google search link; however, in this new "update" they quietly removed the option to choose your own search engine, and force you to use Bing. I used to pay for Pro, when it expired I had the idea that I would still be ad-free; NOPE! They still want you to pay $10 for permanent advertisement removal. This extension can be so much better...

A must for any browser! Become such an integral part to my daily web surfing :)

The BEST out there! took me half a day to find this extension! You can customize every little tab, my favorite is vocab searching, weather, traffic tracking, and newsfeed!

PERFECT just right for me . OUTSTANDING and appreciated..

perfecto just what i needed!!!!!

Keeps forgetting which bookmarks folder the widgets are pointed at, uninstalling

Best of all!

i love it

Sports scores are free but you have to buy the software in order to get Sports "News". Useless.

GOOD

This site can’t provide a secure connection ichro.me sent an invalid response. Try running Windows Network Diagnostics. ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR Unable to manage the options -- all I get is some round icon in the middle of the page and nothing else. FAIL.

Awesome one, even better than substantially start.me :) ;)

Does what it claims and it does it well.

Love it!!!

okay but i want it in free version that has all feature

Great. But the weather widget could be upgraded to add african countries. That would be appreciated.

Does what I need

Like this page, keeps all my stuff where I need it.

So much better than most home pages that I've found and the original old google home page feel it has is awesome.

Works great.

just down loaded it so can't say to much.

its alright to have evthing in one place

I love it when it works.... but seems chrome and windows 10 don't play well together.... pages freeze, clicking icons barely works after numerous attempts.... scrolling not working .. it seems some updates has caused problem to make last few months very frustrating.... tried to fix from videos online but that had just increased problems... tried deleting everything and reloading... I will have to see how this goes....

Too many good features blocked by the "pro" version. Good concept but terrible execution on incentives to upgrade.

iChrome has everything you need all on one Home Page.. Thanks and enjoying it

Awesome

I like it overall. Some widgets don't work right or have to be reset at startup.

it has made my life more informed

I have been using ighome but it crashes my browser . Ichrome is ok but could use more useful widgets

l like it appearance

Great, but it's slow in refreshing widgets.

I like it so far but just added the extension. I am not keen on the ads popping up on the bottom. I like that you can add and remove widgets, set up this home page to what you like.

How can people like this. Tracking cookies, ads, more ads in widgets and more cookies that follow us arround.

Adverts, American, not enough customisation, privacy issues. Promising but same old ad revenue and privacy issues. Oh yeah and no clear way to sign out.

Very happy with it.

google help you

Love it! Simple, clean and nice.

I'm feeling it

Never works

Does not display Fahrenheit weather when I choose it.

Long time user and still loving it

installed, nothing can be seen except an ugly icon when I click on options wow-trying again after years, same difference

Love the personal touches you can put on the layout of your important, or fun, widgets

Easy to use, share setups between computers. Only dislike is the ads.

Love the clean look i can put here what is important to me instead of clutter with extentions that are not for me ! great app !

Great extension.

So far, I'm digging it, but the ads thing is going to get annoying fast. Still, the user friendliness in particular is great.

Tells what I need to know FAST. Extendable.

Very cool app, I look forward so see more widgets!

Used to like it but it "disapears multiple times, lose all the work and todo's. No response from customer service. Don't wast your time

Bugs from minute 1. Couldn't login, couldn't change the first 3 widgets I tried. And the fact that there are ads is a complete bait and switch. I can't stand that. Just tell me up front. Their description specifically says 'Tired of getting blasted with ads?"

Had the pro subscription, but recently Widgets stopped working (stocks). Now I cant even sign in!! Sign in pop up window is now full of broken code. (UPDATE) Latest version fixed this issue thanks!!

Good extension once you get it tweaked. I only give it 4 stars as the developer seems to be out of touch. Haven't been able to get in touch with support despite several methods provided. No presence on social media and no decent forum

It's very much like iGoogle. Wish I had some control over the font size and font face.

Very cool homepage app that helps with productivity.

Need more variety in your widgets.

The RSS reader widgets keep forgetting their URL's and go back to the LifeHacker default. Otherwise its OK

good just wish google has a app for keeps me sign in on my MaCBookAir but i been use chrome a lot! LOVE IT!

i love Ichrome

It was good.

My malwarebytes keeps detecting api.ichro.me as a malicious website so it's concerning. Apart from this it looks cool but unable to add RSS feeds from my favourite websites as this is probably the main purpose for a start page. Needs work...

It's very clean and the simple customization is great.

Nice extension. I like a minimalist look, so I used the changing daily backgrounds with the clock and weather. Only drawback is when you cleat the Chrome cache, you have to re-add. No big deal to me. A++

Ichrome is vry good and very easy to set up.

red bin dosent work

I think that Toby had the right idea, when we the consumer get rewarded for loyalty we tend to go back for more rewards

Nice interface

It did not do anything different than the old browser. I wish I could say this is great, but cannot as I do not see the difference.

Very personalizable. I got all I want in one tab. Like that the absolutely beautiful background/s keeps changing automatically. All in all, great extension!

Clean and easy to setup

Excellent extension. Paid version worth the price.

great concept, dont like the ads removal thing feel that google users should be rewarded for loyalty rather than being irritated! Lots of information in one place-worth having

Can't customize it. Ends up being useless by always going to default settings.

super

Doesn't do anything. Absolutely noting. Just a blank page.

just getting used to it but seems easy to navigate.

This allows me to see the things that are important to me at a glance. So far, so good.

Doesn't do anything after install, just goes to a blank page. The Home page of the extension has some buttons "Get Started", they install another instance of the extension. Seriously flawed!

continues to reset itself to the default settings .... frustrating .... will not update properly This continues to be problematic

had to get rid of the news because of all the advertisements pretending to be news. pretty nice over all. With a little more work it could get 5 stars

Hard to customize. I miss being able to install my own widgets. Would much rather compile my own news feed.

I like it. All the apps on one page is great. You can get rid of the time to work area on top left. Can't get it to change. Stock area works great.

I like it fine! Haters gotta hate, though. You want something super-sophisticated and feature-rich? Make it yourself or go spend money. Quitcha griping.

Need full google calendar and better stock listings.

does not open at all
