How to: The Complete Seedr Chrome Extension Tutorial
This extension can be used in many browsers other than Chrome itself. The other browsers are based on Chromium, an open-source web browser codebase that is used as a foundation for Chrome and many other browsers. We have a partial list of the other browsers that support Chrome Extensions in our Browser Extensions answer.
If you use one of these less common browsers, the exact steps in this tutorial may be different for you, but should still be similar enough to follow.
How to get the Seedr extension in Chrome
Click the 3 dots in the top right of the window.
Hover on the More tools menu. Click Extensions when it appears.
Open the hamburger menu (3 lines) and click Open Chrome Web Store at the very bottom.
In the top left where it says Search Extensions, type Seedr and hit enter.
Click on the result to open it, and click Add to Chrome.
