SheetsGroups

Group Google Sheets tabs into hover dropdown menus allowing for quick contextual navigation without sidebars.

Group your Google Sheets tabs into hover dropdown menus. Assign any tab to a named group: the tab bar stays clean, and hovering a grouped tab reveals all its siblings in a floating menu.No sidebars. No fancy giant folder-like tree. No new UI panels. It lives entirely inside the tab bar you already use. SheetsGroups does not send any data anywhere. No analytics, no network requests… and no hidden costs, subscriptions, fees, unlockakables. Everyone’s happy! The extension only accesses the Google Sheets tab bar to display navigation groups. It does not read, store, or transmit any spreadsheet data.
