  New Tabber transforms every new tab into a clean, beautiful homepage — designed for focus, not distraction.
  
  ✦ Tile grid
  Pin your most-visited sites as tiles. Drag to reorder, drop one onto another to create a folder, and open folders with a single click.
  
  ✦ Dock
  A persistent row of pinned shortcuts at the bottom. Keep it always visible, auto-hide it (reveals on hover), or tuck it away completely.
  
  ✦ Liquid Glass UI
  A frosted-glass aesthetic that adapts to any wallpaper. Tune the blur and opacity, pick your accent, and optionally tint every tile with it.
  
  ✦ Companion
  A pixel-sprite cat or dog that lives on your new tab. Pick from 6 cats and 6 dogs, each with idle, walk, run, sit, stretch, scratch, meow/bark, and nap animations. Smart activity combos keep it feeling alive without getting repetitive. Let it roam the screen bottom, or perch it on the Dock, Search bar, Clock, or Greeting — it walks and runs along that ground line. Right-click to jump to its settings.
  
  ✦ Wallpapers
  Choose from a curated set of built-in wallpapers that shift the entire mood of your browser.
  
  ✦ Customisation
  - Accent color picker + accent-tinted tiles option
  - Light / Dark / System theme
  - Adjustable grid columns, tile corner radius, and shadow
  - Toggle clock, search bar, and tile titles
  - Open bookmarks in current tab or a new one
  
  ✦ Search
  A centered search bar powered by your default browser engine — ready the moment you open a tab.
  
  ✦ FAQs
  Built-in answers for the common questions — accessible from the right-click menu or Settings.
  
  ✦ Import & Export
  Back up your tiles and settings as a JSON file and restore them anytime. Everything also syncs across devices via Chrome Sync.
  
  ✦ Languages
  English and Vietnamese — auto-detected from your browser, with an instant toggle button.
  
  No accounts. No tracking. All data stays in your browser.
