Tips

  • Pin the extension — Click the puzzle-piece icon in Firefox's toolbar, then click the gear icon next to Taskade and select Pin to Toolbar so the extension is always visible.
  • Use the Web Clipper — Right-click any highlighted text or page and select Add to Taskade to clip content directly into a project. Learn more in the Web Clipper guide.
  • Extension conflicts — If another extension overrides your new-tab page, try disabling that extension or reinstalling Taskade last so it takes priority.
  • Keyboard shortcut — Firefox lets you assign custom shortcuts to extensions via about:addons → gear icon → Manage Extension Shortcuts for even faster access.

💡 Tip: Use the browser extension alongside Taskade Genesis to capture ideas and build AI-powered workflows from anywhere.
