Using Toby Next

  • Prioritize with Toby Next: Choose the "Toby Next" option to add webpages or resources you plan to visit soon. This helps you prioritize your browsing by keeping important tabs front and center.
  • Set Up To/Links: To create shortcuts to your most-used resources, select the "To/Link" option. Just assign a memorable name to create a to/link.
  • You’ll be able to use that link right away!
  • Access To/Links: Find and click your created to/links in your Toby Homepage.

Switching Organizations

  • Change Organization: If you're part of multiple organizations and can't find the collection you need, click the three lines next to your Organization name at the top and select another from the menu!

These instructions are designed to help you make the most out of the Toby extension menu's updated features, ensuring your digital workspace is as organized and efficient as possible.
