Bookmark Sidebar enhances your browsing by providing a toggleable sidebar on the edge of your browser window containing all your bookmarks. Easily access, edit, delete, or rearrange bookmarks using drag & drop within a convenient sidebar that appears with a simple click.

The extension also allows you to see details about your bookmarks quickly and verify if URLs are updated or broken. Although it does not work on the Edge webstore or the default new tab page, an alternative page option is available in the settings for uninterrupted usage. This tool streamlines bookmark management, saving you time and improving workflow.

User reviews

Users appreciate the Bookmark Sidebar extension for its functionality, customization, and developer responsiveness. However, recurring issues include its incompatibility with Edge's new tab page, performance slowdowns after updates, inability to sync bookmarks across browsers, and lack of flexibility in sidebar positioning. Permissions requests also raise concerns for some. Overall, it is well-liked for bookmark management but has usability and feature limitations that users hope will be addressed.

Performance can be poor or slow after updates, causing lag.
Syncing bookmarks across different browsers is not supported or unclear.
Sidebar position cannot be changed to left side as expected, causing user dissatisfaction.
Requires strong permissions which some users find uncomfortable.
