Summary
Quickly peek at your favorite web pages without breaking your flow.
Peek lets you choose 10 web pages to open with a keyboard shortcut, without opening a new tab, and able to close with the escape key.
I use this for:
- Translating text
- See my Github notifications
- Calendar schedule
- Check email periodically instead of having it open all the time
- Stock or cryptocurrency prices
- Slack instances I don't want loaded all the time
- Check the weather
Usage
Safety
Risk impact
Peek is risky to use as it requires a number of sensitive permissions that can potentially harm your browser and steal your data. Exercise caution when installing this add-on. Review carefully before installing. We recommend that you only install Peek if you trust the publisher.
Risk likelihood
Peek has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
