Extensions

Based on a careful analysis of existing extensions and user preferences, we selected the most popular, useful and secure extensions for the Yandex Browser beta version.

• Hide icon

2. Select Hide button.

If an extension icon doesn't display in the browser panel:

2. Press the left mouse button.
3. Drag it to the right while holding it.
