Overview

Phosphor Lite replaces your default new tab page with a beautiful, glowing CRT phosphor speed dial dashboard. Get all the nostalgic atmosphere of classic computing terminals, simplified and streamlined into a purely visual, highly-customizable bookmarks interface.

— GLOWING RETRO AESTHETIC —
Choose from 8 distinct phosphor palettes: Amber (default), Green, Blue, White, Crimson, Matrix, Ice, and Warm. Personalize the look with adjustable scanline overlays, phosphor glow intensity, and historical phosphor molecular persistence (P1/P3 ghosting afterimages).

— SPEED DIALS & BOOKMARKS —
Keep your favorite websites organized in custom, named categories. Reorder items with intuitive drag-and-drop, edit labels or URLs inline, and automatically fetch favicon icons. Add current tabs instantly using Ctrl+Shift+S (Cmd+Shift+S on Mac) or your browser command.

— RETRO DISPLAY MODES —
Instantly switch display presets to mirror authentic hardware with custom fonts, styling, and color palettes:
• Commodore 64: Cobalt blue backdrop and light blue text
• Apple II: Classic green monochrome monitor look
• NES: Retro game menu styling
• Game Boy: Four-shade pea-green LCD palette

— LIVE WEATHER WIDGETS —
Add real-time weather tiles that display local conditions, temperature, and retro weather icons. Supports geolocation or manual location search with automatic background updates.

— LAUNCH SETS —
Group your bookmark aliases into custom "Launch Sets" and open multiple tabs at once with a single click. Keep track of your workflow with the integrated Recent Activity and Most Used dial sections.

— ATMOSPHERIC RETRO AUDIO —
Turn on simulated typewriter keyboard clicks and a warm system boot chime. All sounds are synthesized locally using the Web Audio API—no external audio files required.

— DYNAMIC SCREENSAVERS —
Protect your virtual CRT screen when idle. Choose from three interactive screensaver modes:
• Cascade Protocol: Falling Matrix character rain that dynamically adapts its color scheme and symbols (or emojis!) to the current season and time of day.
• Space Warp: A classic 3D starfield flight simulation.
• Bouncing Dials: Watch your custom bookmark tiles bounce smoothly around the screen.

— SEASONAL AUTO-SKIN —
Let the dashboard adapt to the real world. Enable Auto-Skin to let the color palette automatically update by season and time of day (e.g., Ice/Blue for winter nights, Matrix/Warm for summer days).

— 100% PRIVACY & SYNC —
Your data stays yours. All speed dials, categories, launch sets, and preferences sync automatically across your signed-in Google account devices using chrome.storage.sync. Zero external databases, zero trackers, zero analytics.
