Apk Downloader

APK Downloader

As the name suggests, it lets you download apk files for your android device. From? Google Play!! Why would you need it? For your devices that cannot access the playstore, like the kindle fire for example, or when you’ve run out of phone memory and regular installation says insufficient storage. You’ll need to provide a valid android device id and the gmail account associated with it.

Google Dictionary

Google Dictionary

What is a browser without a conveniently accessible dictionary? I have tried quite a few, myself. But the obvious winner was Google Dictionary (by Google). It supports foreign languages, adds a convenient toolbar icon to search in, and the best of all, you can view the meaning of a word just by double clicking it (yes, it’s customizable!). The meaning pops up in a neat little bubble. For in depth meanings, there’s always the toolbar icon.

Panic Button

Panic Button

Ever wanted to hide all your tabs with a single click, so someone who just popped behind you couldn’t see what evil you were doing? Your plans for terrorizing the world with a giant snake, or the blueprints of your rocket ship? Or maybe a blackout, and your UPS has started screaming. And you don’t have time to bookmark your tabs? Well you can’t just close them altogether. Panic!! Then immediately click on the panic button!! You can restore them later, and even password protect your hidden tabs.

ProxMate

Proxmate

As the developers of this nifty app say, a swiss knife for accessing pages, this proxies pages for you!! Just like that!! Works on Youtube, Pandora, Hulu, Netflix, Google Play, and many more. If you use proxy frequently, why not have it just a click away?

TV Watchlist

TV watchlist

My first impression using this extension was, “Okay, not bad, could have been better”. After a few days of using it though, “Whoa, damn this good!”. As the name says, it helps you keep track of your favorite tv shows, when the next episode will air, what you missed, episode summaries, specials, and more. The database it uses is just HUGE. Regional and international shows, episode guides, time-zone customization, and so much more.
