Hiya,

New Tab / Home Page > The handy "Shortcuts" Bar >

How do I make it so it's only sites I WANT there, aka sites I've saved? I'm tired of it just filling this bar up with random pages I visit once or twice.

I want it to just be shortcuts I CHOOSE.

I KNOW that I can keep clicking 'dismiss' on the unwanted shortcuts, BUT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO.

TIA

You can hover a tile to make the three dots appear and open Edit in its drop-down menu to add your custom websites or bookmarks.
