A calm new tab, every time.
RuBuild Home replaces the busy new tab page with a clean, light start page: your time, today's focus, favourite sites and tasks, on wallpapers that follow your day, or your own photo. Free, no account, no ads.
- Free, no paid version
- No account
- Nothing leaves your computer

Everything you need on a new tab, nothing you don't
Today's focus
One line for the one thing that matters today. It clears itself tomorrow.

Wallpapers that follow your day
Morning glow, Clear sky, Golden hour and Moonlight change through the day. Also Ocean, Forest, Lavender, Sunset and Plain light.

Your own photo
Drag any picture onto the page. The text switches between dark and white so it's always easy to read. The photo stays on your computer.

Make it yours
Three layouts (Full, Focus, Minimal); show or hide each part, add your name, choose a 12 or 24-hour clock, and switch motion on or off.

Just the essentials
The Focus layout shows only the time, greeting, today's goal and search.

Search your way
Uses your browser's own search engine. Type a website to go straight there.
Light and private
No account, no ads, and nothing leaves your computer. It pauses completely when the tab isn't on screen, so it uses almost no power.
Questions
Is it free?
Yes, completely, with no ads and no paid version.
Does it change my search engine?
No. Searches go to the search engine you chose in your browser.
Where is my photo kept?
Only in your browser on your computer. It's never uploaded.
How do I get Microsoft's page back?
Click Customize. The first section opens Microsoft's start page any time, and shows how to turn RuBuild Home off for good.
What happens if I uninstall it?
Your settings, sites, tasks and photo are removed from that browser.
Which browsers?
Microsoft Edge first; Google Chrome later.
