Fast Bookmark is a powerful Chrome extension designed to speed up your bookmarking process. Instead of navigating through multiple clicks to save bookmarks into folders, you simply type the folder name to instantly save your bookmarks. It features an autocomplete input that suggests folder names as you type, making the process quick and seamless.

With Fast Bookmark, creating new folders and subfolders is effortless. Type "> folder-name" to create a new folder or "ParentFolder > SubFolder" to create nested folders and save bookmarks within them. This extension is perfect for users who manage numerous bookmarks and want to keep them organized without hassle. You can also set a custom shortcut for swift access. The extension's open-source code is available on GitHub, ensuring transparency and community improvement.

User reviews

Fast Bookmark is praised for significantly improving the bookmarking experience over Chrome's default system, offering quick access and the ability to rename bookmarks before saving. Users appreciate its display of folder paths, aiding in navigation. However, common issues include the lack of collapsible folder trees, no defaulting to last used folders, and slower loading times with many folders. Users suggest adding folder creation and layout customization for even better usability. Overall, it's considered one of the best bookmark extensions available, especially after Chrome's default bookmark system changes.

Pros

Provides a faster and more efficient way to bookmark compared to Chrome's default system.
Allows renaming bookmarks before saving, solving a common annoyance with the default Chrome bookmark behavior.
Supports showing the full folder path, helpful for distinguishing folders with the same name.
Easy to use with a clean interface and significantly improves bookmark management experience.
Considered the best or among the best bookmark extensions available by users.
Works well as an alternative after Chrome's changes broke other bookmark extensions.

Cons

Lacks a collapsible folder tree, making it difficult for users with many subfolders to navigate.
Does not remember or default to the last used bookmark folder, requiring users to select the folder every time.
Slower performance when loading and displaying a large number of bookmark folders.
Missing the ability to create new folders directly from the extension.
No option to customize the layout, such as flipping the view to show title first then folder, as requested by multiple users.

This extension is perfect and does exactly what I need. Shame Google have stopped this extension working. There is only one other alternative extension and that one is awful and does not work right. Typical of Google to change their products so things stop working and people have to suffer. If only the developer of this extension would modify it so it meets the MV3 compatibility that Google now demand.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Fast Bookmark requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
