To disable webpage suggestions on new tab page in chrome and android.

Most often we have something to do in our mind like an information we are particularly seeking or something to work on. So we open our browser and we get distracted by webpage suggestions whose title begins with
"shocking thing happened with your favorite actor/actress..."
"Must see this believe..."
"You wont believe what he/she said to ..."
or something about something or everything and we are always distracted keeping us from being productive and not wasting time.

Stop wasting time and start being more productive.


To keep you from being distracted, saving time, saving sanity, increasing your satisfaction out of your time and work. I found these steps that work by disabling the webpage suggestions on your android phone whenever you open a new tab. This way you increase your focus. 

Step1) Start chrome and open a new tab page. This is the last time you will see a distraction of webpage suggestions here. 
Step 2) Type into the address bar "chrome://flags/#enable-ntp-article-suggestions-expandable-header" and select "Disable" from the dropdown menu. 
Step3) Type into the address bar "chrome://flags/#enable-ntp-remote-suggestions" and select "Disable" from the dropdown menu.
Step4) Relaunch the browser.

PS: NTP stands for New Tab Page

Good Bye to distraction.
