Most people like to personalize their devices and tools, and that applies to web browsers too. Just like other popular browsers (Chrome, Firefox, or Opera), Microsoft Edge offers a large variety of extensions, which you can download and install. Some of them are really good! If you like Microsoft Edge and you want to further expand its features, here is our list of top ten must-have free add-ons for this web browser:

NOTE: Does Microsoft Edge have add-ons? Where do we download extensions for Microsoft Edge? Two legitimate questions with simple answers. Yes, Microsoft Edge has add-ons or extensions if you prefer, as any other browser based on the Chromium open-source project, like Google Chrome or Opera. As for where to get Edge add-ons, Microsoft offers a large store of extensions you can find here: Microsoft Edge Add-ons. To learn more about installing and configuring add-ons, read: How to get, configure, and remove Microsoft Edge extensions.
1. Bitwarden
Bitwarden is one of the best password managers, and everyone should use it. If you like Microsoft Edge and you don’t use the same password for all your various online accounts, Bitwarden is a must-have extension. It can store all your passwords in a secure vault, it auto-fills passwords as you browse the web, and it helps you keep your personal information away from prying eyes. The best part? It’s free to use across all platforms, both mobile and desktop, and doesn’t ask you to pay money to do so, like our old favorite, Lastpass, does nowadays.

2. Momentum
Momentum is a Microsoft Edge extension that replaces the new tab page with a much more beautiful one. We like it because it’s minimalistic and removes distractions like news or links you might not need or want. Furthermore, Momentum also lets you set a daily focus to remind you of what you want to do each day, every time you open a new tab in your web browser.

3. Save to Pocket
Pocket is probably the most popular online service for saving things for later. It allows you to save everything from articles to videos, photos, and almost anything else that has a web address. Later on, when you have time, you can resume reading or watching the things you have placed in your Pocket on any device you own. You can save stuff from the web, quickly and easily, in Microsoft Edge too. Install the Save to Pocket extension from the Microsoft Edge Add-ons store, log in and then click or tap the Pocket button to save the web page you are on.

Enhancer for YouTube is an extension for Microsoft Edge that anyone who uses YouTube should have. It makes your viewing experience a lot better than what YouTube offers by default.

It can also make all videos play automatically in 4K, HD, or any other resolution you prefer.

So if you want to know when your friends or colleagues have read your emails, you should definitely use this tool. With MailTrack, others will never be able to tell you that they did not read your messages because you will know for a fact if they did! 🙂
