Every new tab is a small chance to get distracted. Momentum turns it into a quiet dashboard that reminds you what you meant to focus on today.

Free features

  • A new background photo, mantra and quote each day.
  • Focus Mode to keep your main task in view.
  • Simple to-do lists.
  • Shortcuts to your favorite websites.
  • Local weather.
  • A search box with Google, Bing and other providers.
  • Show or hide any element to keep the page as minimal as you like.

Momentum Plus

The paid Plus plan, which you can try for free after installing, adds unlimited Focus Mode, a vision board, Tab Stash for saving open tabs, Notes AI and Ask AI, soundscapes, habit tracking, unlimited to-do lists and integrations with task managers such as ClickUp, Todoist and Asana, plus countdowns, world clocks and extra weather details.

Installing it

  1. Click Download to open Momentum on the Chrome Web Store.
  2. Add it to Chrome and open a new tab.
  3. When Chrome asks whether to keep the change or go back to Google, click Keep it, as the developer recommends, so Momentum stays on new tabs.

Momentum states that it does not sell user data; details are in its privacy policy at momentumdash.com. If what you really need is a place to park dozens of tabs, look at Toby or Raindrop.io.

Pros

  • Calm, customizable new tab page
  • To-dos, focus and weather in the free version
  • Elements can be hidden

Cons

  • Many features require Momentum Plus
