Easy Private Bookmarks is an open-source Chrome extension that lets you create and manage password-protected bookmarks securely and effortlessly. Unlike regular bookmarks, your locked bookmarks stay private and synchronized across all your devices, accessible simply through the bookmarks bar once you enter your password.

Key features include quick locking of bookmarks in their original location, comprehensive bookmark editing (adding, renaming, deleting folders and bookmarks), icon (favicon) previews, and peeking to view encrypted link titles without fully decrypting. The extension supports Incognito mode upon user enabling, and emphasizes user privacy with no password recovery option. Recent updates brought enhanced security through implemented public/private key encryption, UI improvements, and manual migration tools to transition older bookmarks seamlessly.

With easy management, strong security measures, and a developer-friendly open-source codebase, Easy Private Bookmarks offers a trustworthy solution for keeping your sensitive bookmarks private yet accessible.
