Extension Manager

A simple way to manage your browser extensions

Extension Manager is a powerful Chrome extension designed to simplify the management of your browser extensions. It offers flexible rule customization that allows you to automatically enable or disable extensions based on conditions like URL, profile, operating system, or time. Actions include enabling, disabling, closing, and even custom operations with automatic page refresh.

Additional highlights include bulk export/import capabilities to share extension lists in text, JSON, or markdown formats, making migration or mass installation seamless. Basic features such as one-click enable/disable, batch group controls, quick search by name or description, navigation to extension settings, and customizable aliases and notes help streamline daily extension management. The extension supports both list and grid views and maintains a history of extension activities. It's fully open-source, highly customizable, and respects user privacy by collecting no data.

User reviews

Extension Manager is praised as one of the best Chrome extension managers due to its rich customization options, open-source nature, and advanced features like URL-based rules. Users appreciate its intuitive UI and thorough documentation. However, recurring issues include the inability to click an extension icon to launch it directly, missing certain advanced functionalities found in other managers, limited toolbar pinning support, and some platform-specific bugs. Many users hope for future enhancements such as cloud syncing, better extension launching behavior, and more flexible group management.
Pros
  • Highly customizable with features like grouping, rules, and profiles for dynamic extension management.
  • Open source, providing trust and the potential for long-term support.
  • User-friendly interface with clear UI and good documentation.
  • Supports automation by enabling/disabling extensions based on URL patterns, enhancing browsing efficiency.
  • Considered by multiple users as one of the best or among the top extension managers available.
Cons
  • Clicking an extension toggles enable/disable instead of launching or opening the extension, which users find unintuitive.
  • Lacks some advanced features present in other popular extension managers, like resetting manually enabled extensions or drag-and-drop rearrangement of groups and rules.
  • No built-in option to directly pin or fix extensions to the toolbar; some users would like direct access to extension settings for pinning.
  • On Android, the extension has bugs like not showing extension icons or thumbnails.
  • Some users desire features like cloud backup of configurations, sidebar availability, color-coded group indicators, and auto-grouping with AI assistance, which are not yet implemented.

Ich bin sprachlos, wie unfassbar genial diese Erweiterung ist. Insbesondere die regelbasierte Steuerung einzelner Erweiterungen bietet ungeheure Möglichkeiten.

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.

Extension Manager requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
