Summary

Save bookmarks faster by just typing the name of the folder you want to save it to.

Fast Bookmark helps you to save bookmarks faster. If you want to save a new bookmark into one of your bookmark folders or into a new bookmark folder it takes a few clicks to choose the folder. For people who save a lot of bookmarks and want to keep them organized in folders this can be quite tedious.

Fast Bookmark provides an autocomplete input field to easily choose the right folder for the new bookmark. Just open Fast Bookmark (best is to set a shortcut to open the extension, e.g. CTRL+Shift+S), start typing the name of the folder and hit enter. Finished.

Creating a new folder is super easy as well: Just type "> my-new-folder" and Fast Bookmark will create a new folder with the name "my-new-folder" and save the bookmark into it.

Creating subfolders is possible as well: For example type "Technology > my-new-subfolder" and Fast Bookmark will create a new subfolder with the name "my-new-folder" within the folder with the name "Techology" and save the bookmark into it.

Chrome recently updated removing their normal bookmark dialogue, this is a good alternative since you can't change any setting to go back for Chrome. A couple things I would like would be 1) to default to whatever you last saved a bookmark to (and I can just click submit), and 2) to sort the list of folder by how recently they were last saved to. This would 1) save needing to choose a folder to save to if you consistently bookmark to a single folder more than others, and 2) would save the need to scroll down as much when you need to actually select a folder. Otherwise, this works great.

Can you flip the view so it shows the title on top and the folder below please? I typically need to rename the bookmark before saving and you can't see what it will save as with the current setup. If you could still keep the initial focus on the folder selection the app would be perfect. Thank you!
