However, you can extend this functionality with additional Third-party Addons. These addons provide reports, filters, [[Gramps_Glossary#viewmode|View modes]], Gramplets, and more.
From Gramps [[Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Settings_Navigation#GeneralSettings|PreferencesAddon Manager...> Scheduled update checks]]section, you can check for available extra (or updated) addons and select which to download. Then, they will be retrieved from the internet from the Gramps-Project file server and installed locally on your computer.
Once installed, an addon is found in the same place as a built-in feature of the same [[Addon_list_legend#Type|Type]]. That is, Tool addons become new menu items on the Tools menu... while addon Gramplets become new choices in the appropriate Category View sidebar, bottombar or Dashboard options.
