A quiet new tab. Daily wallpaper, weather, clock, Pomodoro, sticky notes, voice input, and ambient audio. Open a new tab. Take a breath. Nook Tab quietly replaces Chrome's default new tab with a full-screen nature photograph, a soft clock, today's weather, and the few tools you actually use during the day. Everything else stays out of the way. No dashboards screaming at you. No "good morning, user" pop-ups. No grid of tiny logos. Just one beautiful place to start, a thousand times a day. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ What you get 🌄 A new wallpaper every day One hand-picked landscape from free photo libraries like Unsplash and Pexels, rotated daily. If you love today's picture, sit with it. If you don't, tomorrow brings another. Two backup photos ship inside the extension, so even offline or on a first launch the tab is never blank. 🕐 A clock that just tells the time Big, readable, 12h or 24h. Add your name and it'll say hello. That's it. ☀️ Weather, without the ceremony Your approximate city and current conditions, quietly pinned to the corner. No account to make, no location prompt to dismiss. Toggle °C or °F in settings. 🔎 Search using YOUR search engine Type anything and hit Enter. Google, DuckDuckGo, Brave, Kagi, whatever you've already chosen as Chrome's default. Nook Tab doesn't pick for you and doesn't phone anyone on the way. Tap the mic for voice search. ⏲️ A Pomodoro that actually works the way you do 25 minutes of focus, 5 minutes of break, a longer break every fourth cycle. All three durations are yours to change. Start one in this tab and every other open new tab falls into focus mode with you: wallpaper dims, UI fades, a small amber pill shows the time. Click it to pause. Deeply satisfying. 📝 Sticky notes you can fling around Drag, drop, resize, edit. Four quiet colors (pale yellow, pink, mint, sky). Every note survives restarts and syncs between tabs the moment you type. 🎧 Seven ambient loops Forest Rain. Ocean Waves. Forest River. Waterfall. Night Crickets. Train Ride. Fireplace. One tap and the room has a mood. Volume, track, and play state remember themselves and stay in step across tabs. ✨ Liquid Glass everywhere Backdrop blur, hairline borders, that soft inner sheen on every panel. It's the interface equivalent of a nice pen. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ What is NOT happening No account. No login. No cross-device sync. No analytics. No crash reporting. No "anonymous usage data." No ads. No affiliate links. No tracking pixels. No fingerprinting. No AI chatbot. No trending headlines. No bookmarks grid. Nothing you do in Nook Tab is sent to the developer. Ever. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ What DOES leave your browser, and why Five things, all of them obvious, none of them secret. 1. At most about twice an hour (only when the weather refreshes), your public IP goes to geojs.io so the weather pill knows which city to name. 2. Up to twice an hour, those coordinates go to Open-Meteo for the current temperature and weather code. No account, no cookies. 3. If, and only if, you press the mic button, Chrome's built-in Web Speech API streams your audio to Google for transcription and hands back the text. Nook Tab never touches the audio. 4. Hitting Enter on a search hands the query to Chrome's own Search API using whatever engine you already use. Nothing detours through the developer. 5. Wallpaper photos and the seven audio loops stream on first play from jsDelivr (a public open-source CDN). Your browser caches each one forever after, so later opens are instant and offline-friendly. Every preference (your name, notes, timer state, cached weather, last played track) lives in your browser's local storage. Uninstall the extension and every byte of it disappears with it.
