MemoPad New Tab

Memopad New Tab makes it a Markdown editor instead of the default [New Tab] in Google Chrome.

Memopad New Tab is a Chrome extension that turns your new tab into a Markdown editor. Open a new tab to instantly 🗒️ take notes, save ⏰ reminders, 🔗 paste links, or create tables. Designed for those who want a quick, clean, and smart way to make the most of every new tab. * Simple and Easy to Use Just open a new tab and start writing. Your notes are automatically saved and ready the next time you open a tab. * Note List Create multiple notes for different purposes and switch between them with ease. * More Expressive with Markdown Use Markdown syntax to write with headings, lists, tables, code blocks, and more. See [the official guide](https://github.github.com/gfm/) for Markdown syntax. * Works Offline Memopad New Tab stores your data in the browser, not on any server. You can create and edit notes even without an internet connection. * Powered by Monaco Editor — the Same Editor as VS Code Enjoy a rich editing experience with Monaco Editor, the same editor used in VS Code. Syntax highlighting and autocompletion make writing Markdown smooth and comfortable. * Diagrams with PlantUML Memopad New Tab supports PlantUML, letting you create sequence diagrams, class diagrams, flowcharts, and more from plain text. Just write the code and your diagram appears instantly. * Real-time Preview Your content is reflected in the preview pane as you type. See the final result right alongside your writing for a seamless note-taking experience. --------- [Updates] v1.3.6 (2026/05/12) * Added instant Privacy Blur activation with F6 When you need to hide the screen immediately, pressing F6 now enables Privacy Blur on the spot and switches to a blurred view right away. * Fixed an issue where Privacy Blur did not work correctly v1.3.5 (2026/05/11) * Fixed delayed note update reflection Resolved an issue where updates made in another tab could appear with a delay, so the latest content is now shown more smoothly. * Adjusted export reminder animation for new installations For new installations, the export reminder bounce animation is suppressed for the first 30 days to improve initial usability and visual comfort. v1.3.3 (2026/05/07) * Added idle timeout detection to Privacy Blur The screen will automatically blur after 5 minutes of inactivity, even while the window is focused.
