User reviews

Users appreciate Bookmarks Tagger's fast and effective tagging system and the custom grouping feature, finding it useful for organizing numerous bookmarks. However, the extension lacks integration with Chrome's native bookmarks, missing export and sync options, which frustrates users. The absence of autocomplete for tags leads to inconsistent tagging, and search is limited to tags only, not titles. Stability issues and incomplete feature execution are also commonly mentioned, though users still consider it better than alternative bookmark taggers available.

Cons
  • Lacks integration with Chrome's native bookmarks, leading to synchronization and backup issues.
  • No option to export bookmarks or tags, making data portability and backup difficult.
  • Tags are not autofilled or suggested during entry, causing inconsistent tag creation and user inconvenience.

Manca il percorso di ogni preferito, se ci fosse questa opzione in più darei 5 stelle invece che 4.

It would be great if you let me know the already created tags while tagging a new BM

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.

Bookmarks Tagger requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
