About this extension
Aura Start turns your Firefox homepage, new windows, and new tabs into a personal start page for the links you use every day. Organize links into nested groups, add descriptions and tags, and find what you need with search. Reorder links and groups with clear drop previews, smoothly moving neighboring links, or keyboard controls. Movement respects reduced-motion preferences.

Firefox may ask you to confirm the homepage change, which also applies to the Home button. You can change it in Firefox's Home settings. Your preference to restore previous windows and tabs stays unchanged.

Choose a theme or your own background image. Keep notes on the page and use the optional clock, Pomodoro timer, or Countdown widget. Countdown supports a custom alarm sound and adjustable volume; leave an Aura Start page open to hear the alarm. Audio files are prepared on your device, with a 20 MiB import limit and a playback clip of up to 60 seconds.

Your data stays on your device by default, and no account is required. Google Drive sync is optional and off by default. Connect the same Google account on your devices to share links, settings, notes, your custom background, and the selected Countdown sound. Concurrent changes merge automatically, and pending offline edits are retried when a connection is available. The connected account is shown in Settings and the page header so you can check which account is in use.

Create a full backup with your settings and custom media, or export your links for use elsewhere. Import previews and local restore points help you review and recover changes. You can also find duplicate links and save tabs from the current window after granting optional tab access.

Import earlier Aura Start backups or an A Fine Start export code. Aura Start is an independent project and is not affiliated with A Fine Start.

The application is open source and has no ads, analytics, or tracking.

Requires Firefox 142 or newer.
