How to (FAQ):
- Set it as Homepage (video 0:33) - in Options page / first tab / first line click "Copy link" button and paste it in Firefox / Options / Home / "Homepage and new windows" - Custom URLs...

Thank you! :)
Your donation will help me keep this add-on working in future versions of Firefox!
Privacy and permissions:
- add-on by default makes NO remote requests to my Cloud server or Google or any other service!
- if user creates cloud account on https://group-speed-dial.fastaddons.com page, add-on will synchronize his dials with the cloud server
- there is NO tracking of visited pages or user activity! There is only history (backup) of changes made to your dials - stored locally on your PC and NOT synchronized with cloud.
- favicons are downloaded directly - if possible, else Google service can be used - MUST BE ENABLED by user in Options page first!
- permission "Access your data for all websites" in only used to get page title (used to set proper name of the dial) and monitor resolution (used to create thumbnail with correct resolution). My add-on cannot access anything else from pages you visit! Both of these scripts can be verified by checking "browser.tabs.executeScript" methods in "background_gsd.js" file.
- permission "Hide and show browser tabs" is used to create hidden tab, where thumbnails are created
- permission "Access browser activity during navigation" is only used while generating thumbnail!
Known issues:
- the default "Refresh dial" may not work for some highly protected pages like Facebook or banks - use "Refresh by visiting page" instead
- thumbnail creation is not perfect - some pages are loading their content asynchronously and thumbnail may be created incomplete - use delay function "+ 5s"
Known Firefox issues: (feel free to up-vote any of these)
- BEWARE - loosing all your data can happen if you downgrade back to Firefox ESR 60 from current Firefox! Luckily you can use "History / backups" feature in upper right corner menu to restore your dials data. More info here.
- dials to local files - protocol "file://" - are supported, HOWEVER clicking them is currently forbidden by Firefox security
- Ctrl + Tab switches to hidden Reloading tab
- in Firefox 61 the address-bar is not focused when opening new Firefox window
- in Firefox 61 changing New tab page to "about:home" doesn't work - use Firefox 60 ESR and vote for these bug1 bug2
- auto-reload will exit full-screen videos (until it's fixed in Firefox 62, enable "Keep reloading tab opened after reloading" in Options page / Thumbnails)
- if you setup GroupSpeedDial as homepage - opening very first Firefox window may show blank page and address-bar won't be selected, see also this bug
- Firefox prevents add-ons from using internal database when history is disabled. You can enable History in "Firefox / Options / Privacy & Security / History"
- common database corruption issues (IndexedDB API)
- dials to internal pages like "about:addons" or "about:debugging" and dials to other extension pages like "moz-extension://..." are forbidden by Firefox security

Note:
- This add-on is in active development and there are many new features on the way!
