Reviews for Group Speed Dial
Group Speed Dial by Juraj Mäsiar
Review by MediaPuck
Rated 4 out of 5
by MediaPuck, 7 years agoI came from FVD, installed Group Dial, and sorry to say, am going back to FVD.
There is on page 2 here a review "by vee, 21 days ago"
that claims that FVD charges for more dials - totally untrue.
FVD has never charged for anything pertaining to the dials.
I am NOT an employee of theirs or in any other way associated with them,
other than being a normal consumer with their extension installed.
They are around a long time. Yes, they maybe still a little bit slower, but also
serving up a lot more customizing options. Just far more mature. That's all.
Am sure that within a year or so Group Dial will also have good changes to show.
Right now it's more Beta than anything. This is not a critique just a statement.
I am around a long time online [since 1993] and have seen many come and go.
Group Dial is definitely one that will remain.
For now I will continue to use FVD, that now is also faster after their re-write for FF 57.
The only slower aspect is the rebuilding of thumbnails. Everything else
[cloud storage etc.] it has everything and more .
Just wanted to set the record straight that they never charged anyone for anything
and have no intentions to do so. They have a business with some software etc.
where they have a regular shopping cart. But the Speed Dial is provided 100% for free
ever since their inception many years ago.
I would pay [I I do for a Pro since I have close to 3000 dials and want the benefit
of customer service solutions fast if needed]. I have enjoyed their speed dials
extension for free since many years, and they too have to make a living.
There is nothing wrong with that. I'd consider the same benefit if I would use
Group Dial as my primary bookmarking.
I will come back from time to time and see hopefully progress and maturing. :)

- Rated 5 out of 5by mikwei, 8 days agoNever an issue, works on all browsers and OS's, sync sometimes slow, but a cloud access as well so you don't need to sync everywhere. Support has been great, and really it never fails. Some offer some better widget add-on but find this functions better/faster and very customizable.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Vlad, 21 days agoThank you for the quick correction of the bug, a wonderful application that works again like a clock, I change the rating perfectly.

Juraj Mäsiar - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 15944772, a month agoCrashes Firefox every night. I love this add on and have been using it for years, but finally isolated the persistent crashes to this specific add-on. I will have to disable it and look for an alternative. Would be five stars if it was stable.

posted a month agoHello,
Could you write me email (admin@fastaddons.com) with more details please? I would live to investigate this.
For example, is your PC running all night? And do you have "Auto-reload" enabled in some of your dials? There have been cases when auto-reload would fail if monitor disconnects itself when monitor goes to sleep but PC is still running.
But in any case, addons should not be possible to crash the browser, so sounds interesting.
Please let me know.

Juraj Mäsiar - Rated 1 out of 5by illgiveyoufish, a month agoIn the nonpro version you can't resize the size of the dials. Which makes it useless for me.
Developer response
posted a month agoHello,
Right click group name or open main menu and select "Edit group".
There you can change dimensions / layout.
The PRO feature for dial resize applies only to single dial. It should be less confusing in the upcoming release :)

Is there some error message?
Unless you are using some very old Firefox, everything should work.
Maybe this article will help:
