- Rated 3 out of 5by Juha, 2 years agoMost customizable out of all the dials I've tried, so I definitely recommend it overall. I would have given it 5 stars, but I had to take 2 away because there are several issues that could be improved.
1) I don't like that I have to make an extra click to access Site Groups. I wish they were on top of the page like tabs in a browser. It's very impractical if you have multiple groups and have to access the sidebar every time you want to switch.
2) It's great that I can quickly add a site with a small icon in the search bar, but it would be better if it remembered I've already added it. Clicking the icon again and adding the website will result in two identical shortcuts on the dial. It should work as an editable icon, so that when I click it the second time, I would be able to edit information of the shortcut (change photo or name from there instead of having to do it on the main dial page). Choosing the folder to save it to would also be practical.
3) Setting images can be tedious; I work with a trackpad on a laptop and holding it for a longer time is really uncomfortable. This goes for deleting groups too. Also, sometimes when I try to add an image from a link it says "wrong file".
4) This isn't a problem as such, but for personal preference I would like a less visible shadow around the tile edges, it would make it look cleaner.Developer response
posted 2 years agoThank you for your recommendation.
✔️ As of version 34 you can now pin site groups to the homepage.
✔️ You can preview and edit all the properties of the site you're visiting without going to the speed dial itself.
✔️ You can have as many identical/similar sites in as many groups as you want. It wouldn't be right for us to restrict that.
✔️ Trackpads and touch devices are prone to accidental taps and that's why there's a less than a second hold down period on buttons that can replace your images or reset your settings etc.
✔️ If you're not comfortable with the trackpad (we can relate to that) and don't have a more convenient pointing device, you can always use SwiftDial with the keyboard. A lot of people even prefer keyboard for working with menu forms.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Rusty Trombone, 2 years agoLooks good, but can't use as there's a limit to 100px dials and that's too big: it doesn't give me enough dials. Also the extension calls itself swift, but then even button presses in the menu must unusally be held for a longer time. Additionally, unlike other similar extensions, it didn't allow dials to be made that didn't have a strict internet address. I want for example a dial to go to my Ant Downloader extension settings, but can't.

posted 2 years agoHi, Rusty.
Thank you for trying out our extension.
✔️ Only buttons like "Reset All Settings Now" require holding them for 0.5 seconds. It's to prevent accidental unwanted changes. All the other buttons don't require that.
✔️ From version 31 you can save extension pages to speed dial.
✔️ As of version 46 we've lowered minimum value for the width and height of site tiles to 50 so that users on mobile devices can fit more tiles on their screens

🔗 https://nscript.ru/donate - Rated 5 out of 5by Trisha, 2 years agoI absolutely LOVE this extension! So much better than others I have tried. BONUS: You can save your speed dials to a file on your PC or laptop, without them charging you for that option! I would happily send a donation to the developers of this app if they message me with how/where to do that.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13015115, 2 years agoПриложение понравилось. Но 4 поставил из-за некоторого неудобства доступа к группам. Сделайте пожалуйста чтобы они были видны на стартовом экране и чтобы можно было переключаться между группами в одно "касание".
Спасибо!Developer response
posted 2 years agoСпасибо за отзыв.
Рады, что Вам пришлось по вкусу наше дополнение.
✔️ Начиная с версии 34 появилась возможность прикреплять группы сайтов к домашней странице.
✔️ Также существует возможность переводить панели SwiftDial (включая панель "Группы сайтов") в авто-скрытый режим кликнув на пустое место на домашней странице.
Вместе с настройками для открытия сайта в новой вкладке без переключения на нее, Вы можете переключаться между группами сайтов и открывать сайты не покидая текущую вкладку и не закрывая панель "Группы сайтов".

- Rated 5 out of 5by Mrakobes, 3 years agoПожалуйста, сделайте автоматическое закрытие боковой панели при выборе группы - получается так: клацаешь по другой группе и панель закрывает всю правую сторону
Developer response
posted 3 years agoЗдравствуйте, Mrakobes.
✔️ Данный функционал был реализован еще в прошлом году в версии 2.2.
У каждой группы в левой части есть иконка "Переключить и закрыть", которая автоматически закрывает панель сразу после переключения группы.
Если остались еще вопросы, можете отправить их на контактный адрес электронной почты.
Будем рады Вам помочь.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Shonay, 3 years agoThis truly is the best competitor I've come across to FVD Speed Dial. Ever since Firefox removed FVD from their store due to the suspicious code they had included in their addon - I've been looking for an alternative that I could use in both Firefox and Chrome-based browsers. With this extension I can have all the necessary features I require along with the great looks and customizability I've come to expect from a Speed-Dial extension and not to mention the great use of computer resources. This extension loads quick, and uses very little memory when compared to FVD. This extension truly is a masterpiece and I've now included it as my default go-to extension on all my browsers. A big thank you to the creator/developer - you and your team have done an excellent job. Keep it up.
