Sprucemarks is a powerful Chrome extension designed to help users effortlessly organize their bookmarks across various categories such as Bookmarks Bar, Other Bookmarks, and Mobile Bookmarks. It allows you to automatically sort bookmarks by title, date, or URL, and group folders together or mix them alongside bookmarks according to your preference. Each bookmark area can have its own unique sort order that applies instantly and continuously.

In addition to sorting, Sprucemarks offers tools to improve your bookmark collection by identifying and optionally removing empty folders, duplicate bookmarks, and similar entries. It also provides a bookmark history viewer to facilitate better management. While it can be used alongside other bookmark extensions, users should ensure that multiple extensions do not attempt to sort the same areas simultaneously to prevent conflicts. Privacy is respected with a clear policy, and the extension operates under a no-contact and no-support model, focusing on a seamless user experience without interference.

I just started using this and I am loving the duplicates and empty folder removal. Would love to see a Select All feature.

This addresses one of the biggest pain points with Chrome. The UX for sorting bookmarks in Chrome is terrible since it requires you to descend into multiple options windows each time you add a bookmark. Firefox can at least sort folders on demand using the context menu, which reduces this to a single click, but an auto-sorter removes even this hurdle! Genius.
