Click to hide titles of your bookmarks. Click again to restore them.

In Options, you can tune scope of hiding, i.e. whether to include subfolders.

IMPORTANT: Restore the bookmarks titles before uninstalling the extension. Otherwise, the titles will be lost.

It's because Chrome doesn't allow the extension to detect its own removal and therefore the extension cannot handle titles restoration automatically. As a safety measure it's best to back up bookmarks before the very first use of the extension - howto: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/96816?hl=en

I just tried this and it works. It just removes the 'Title/Name' on each bookmark and restores it. But it has an option to only hide the titles on the bookmark bar, and not dropdown folders or the bookmark manager. And that doesn't work.

I've been using this extension for years; does exactly what I want. Thank you!

This extension saves a copy of all bookmark titles to its internal database, it does NOT "hide" anything. It deletes the the titles when you click its icon, and, as long as you have not removed the extension, it replaces the titles from its database. Such a brute force extension. Not the least bit elegant-- I suppose that's not what the dev is going for. To ask the user to remember to do something before removing the extension is not viable, so there's nothing "Pro" about this little app, even if the dev uses that word in the description.
