vBookmarks

A popup bookmark manager. Enhanced Neat Bookmarks. Neater than Neater Bookmarks.

vBookmarks — your bookmarks, one keypress away. Stop digging through Chrome's bookmark manager. vBookmarks puts your entire library in a fast, keyboard-friendly popup: click the toolbar icon (or press Ctrl+Shift+V), type a few letters, hit Enter, and you're there. It's the actively maintained successor of the classic Neat Bookmarks — free, lightweight, and polished since 2011. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Instant fuzzy search over titles, URLs and folders — in the popup, the side panel, or Chrome's address bar (type * then Space). Match highlighting included, CJK-friendly. • Seven purpose-built views: the classic folder tree, search, tab groups, a staging workbench, visit statistics, dead-link cleanup and duplicate cleanup. • A command palette (Ctrl+K / Cmd+K) for everything: open, move, sort, jump between views, switch themes — plus your own custom slash commands, synced across devices. ADDING AND ORGANIZING, EFFORTLESSLY • Save the current tab from the star button, Ctrl+D, the global Alt+Shift+S, or the right-click menu — always into the folder you chose. • Capture a whole window of tabs as a bookmark folder with one command, and reopen it later as a named Chrome tab group. • Organize at speed: drag and drop, multi-select batch actions, copy or move across folders, per-folder sorting, and edit dialogs that pre-fill everything for you. • Every deletion is undoable — one tap on the toast brings it all back, so cleanup never feels risky. A REAL KEYBOARD WORKFLOW • Every view works without a mouse: arrows, Home/End, PageUp/PageDown, Enter to open, F2 to rename, Delete to remove, and type-ahead jumps in the tree. • Alt+1…7 jumps straight to any view, Tab cycles the zones, and Esc unwinds menus, palette, selection and search — one clean layer at a time. • Shortcuts everywhere: Ctrl+K / Cmd+K in the popup, Ctrl+Shift+K globally, Alt+Shift+B for the side panel, Alt+Shift+S for quick add. THE STAGING WORKBENCH — A NEW WAY TO TRIAGE • New bookmarks land in a staging area instead of disappearing into the tree: group them, star them, file them into folders in batches, or let them flow into the recently-added timeline. • It turns "save now, organize someday" into a five-minute daily habit. BEYOND STOCK CHROME • Real separators — divider lines with custom colors and widths inside any folder, the feature Chrome's manager never had. • Automatic favicon refresh recovers missing site icons (direct fetch, proxy, or provider fallbacks, with a local cache), so every row stays readable. • Dead-link scan with an optional proxy re-check tells "site is down" from "blocked on your network"; duplicates merge with six keeper strategies. • Sync-status indicators show which bookmarks live only on this device (Chrome 138+). • Visit statistics stay 100% local: sort by count or recency, pause anytime, erase with one click. MAKE IT YOURS • Four crafted themes — Light, Dark, Ink, Paper — plus follow-system, zoom, custom CSS, and your own toolbar icon. • Popup or side panel: the panel turns vBookmarks into a permanent workspace column beside your pages — and the foundation for everything coming next. • Fully translated into 43 languages. FREE AND PRIVATE Free forever. No ads, no tracking, no accounts — your data never leaves your browser. Open source under the MIT license, maintained by a developer who still answers every issue. Give it a week — your bookmarks will feel organized for the first time in years.
