Tile Pad is a Chrome extension that replaces the default new
tab page with a clean, customizable speed dial. Pin the
sites you visit most, group them into folders, choose a
wallpaper, and arrange everything the way you actually
work.
No account, no servers, no tracking. Your bookmarks,
wallpapers, and layout live on your device — and that's
the only place they go.
Drag tiles anywhere, rearrange with precision, and watch your
layout settle in place. Right-click any empty cell to add a
bookmark at that exact spot.
Folders, your way
Drag one bookmark onto another to group them, or right-click to
create an empty folder for later. Open a folder to see its
contents in a focused grid.
Sync across devices
Optional Chrome Sync keeps your bookmarks and layout consistent
on every browser you sign into. Off by default — you flip the
switch in Settings.
Previews built in
100+ brand icons ship with the extension. Sites without one get
auto-generated thumbnails from their Open Graph image or
a screenshot captured on first visit.
Make it yours
Pick from bundled 4K wallpapers, abstract patterns, or upload
your own. Switch themes, tune grid density, and pick fonts
and sizes for tile titles.
Private by design
Nothing leaves your browser. No account, no servers, no ads,
no tracking. Tile Pad stores everything in local storage
on your device.
Add Tile Pad to Chrome in one click. No account, no setup
wizard — the first new tab already works.
Add bookmarks in seconds
Right-click any empty cell, press ⌘B (or CtrlB), or use the browser context menu
to save the current page.
Rearrange and customize
Drag tiles to reorder, drop one onto another to create a
folder, or open Settings to change wallpaper, theme,
and layout.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
What data does Tile Pad collect?
None. All your bookmarks, folders, wallpapers, and previews
stay in your browser's local storage. There are no Tile Pad
servers — we don't operate any. The only network requests
the extension makes are to the sites you bookmark, to fetch
their preview image.
Yes. Enable Chrome Sync in the Settings panel and your
bookmarks, folders, and preferences follow you to every
Chrome install signed into the same Google account. It's
off by default — the choice is yours.
Nothing leaves
your browser.
No account. No servers. No analytics. No third-party trackers.
Tile Pad is designed around a simple promise: your bookmarks,
wallpapers, and layouts are yours alone, stored locally.
