# Why is Voice In disabled on certain websites ?

For security reasons, the Chrome and Edge browsers do not allow Chrome extensions (including Voice In) to work on a small number of pages: 

* Chrome Webstore (<https://chrome.google.com/webstore>/)
* Edge Extension Store (<https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/addons/>)
* Internal pages like new tab (chrome://newtab). These pages have URLs starting with chrome:// or edge://.

You can use Voice In on all other sites, including [Google](https://www.google.com/),[ YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/),[ Gmail](https://mail.google.com/), or [any other site](https://dictanote.co/voicein/apps/).

To use Voice In on the new tab page, check out the how to use Voice In on the new tab page guide.
