MONKNOW combines favorite sites, search, weather, to-dos, and wallpapers in a customizable new-tab browser extension.
About MONKNOW
MONKNOW is a new-tab extension for Chrome, Firefox and Edge that shows favourite sites, search, weather, to-dos and wallpapers on one page. Users can group sites by purpose, reorder them with drag and drop, import browser bookmarks, search from the new tab with a chosen search engine, and change themes, wallpapers, icons, sidebar settings and standby-page clock and weather.
No account is needed for basic use. Registration enables backup of icons, settings, wallpapers, search and standby-page data and sync across devices, and synced favourites can be viewed through MONKNOW Web on other devices without the extension, described as a member benefit that non-members can try.
