If you are chrome user just like me and are looking for ways to improve your experience, then these extensions can definitely boost your experience. I myself use most of these on a day to day basis. Some of these extensions are fun while some can help you be more productive.

1. Stylish

Stylish as the name Implies allows you to add custom themes for any website. If you are a regular visitor and are just bored by the user interface of the website, then you can choose this extension to change the theme of that particular website. There are hundreds of different themes available for many different websites and you can create your own custom themes. This extension supports thousands of websites including Facebook, youtube, quora, twitter, reddit etc.

2. Wikiwand

Wikiwand is an extension that takes your wikipedia experience to a whole new level. It provides a much better and enhanced user experience by placing all headings of a wikipedia page in tabs on the left hand side which makes scrolling to your favorite portion a whole lot easier. This extension is definitely a must try especially for college students who spend most of their time researching topics on wikipedia.

3. Grammarly

To be honest, I am really poor at typing and tend to make a lot of silly mistakes. I can type really fast and maybe that’s why I tend to make careless mistakes. But thanks to grammarly extension for chrome, I don’t have to worry about making mistakes anymore. Grammarly automatically checks the words that I have typed and highlights words with spelling mistakes. I just have to highlight the misspelled word and select the correct spelling. Note that this extension doesn’t autocorrect but just highlights it so that you can choose the correct spelling yourself. This can prove to be especially useful if you want to avoid making silly mistakes in your blog post and can save a lot of time.

4. Momentum

Momentum is an extension for those people who are like me and hate looking at a plain blank page every time they open a new tab in chrome. With momentum, every time you open a new tab in chrome you will be shown a beautiful Hi-res picture with the time and your name. These settings can be customized. When you run this extension for the first time you will have to create an account in order to sync across your other laptops and pcs.

5. Citrus

Although I don’t use this extension, I could definitely see myself using this to increase my productivity. Citrus is an extension that can help block websites that are cause you to waste time for a specified period of time. You can enter the websites and duration for which you want these websites to be blocked. But, once you set the time and enable the extension then you can’t disable it until the timer runs out! This is definitely an extension everyone should have installed at the office!

6. Awesome Screenshot

This is an extension I don’t use since I am satisfied with how I can take screenshots on my MacBook Pro. But this is one helpful tool that all windows users can use. Capture all or part of any web page. Add annotations, comments, blur sensitive info, and share with one-click uploads. This extension will satisfy all your screen capture needs.

That’s pretty much the top 5 chrome extensions I think everyone should have installed on their chrome browser to make their chrome experience more fun and exciting!!
