Visual Bookmarks

Keep all your favorite sites in one place with Visual Bookmarks

Visual Bookmarks is a Chrome extension designed to expand and enhance your bookmarking experience. Unlike the default limit of 8 bookmarks in Google Chrome™, this extension allows you to keep up to 25 bookmarks visually accessible. You can easily enable or disable the display of certain bookmarks to prevent them from obstructing background elements, helping you maintain a tidy browsing environment.

Additionally, Visual Bookmarks integrates seamlessly with your browser’s bookmark bar, giving you quick access to your favorite sites. From the Visual Bookmarks page, you can also effortlessly launch Google Chrome™ applications (Apps). The extension offers a simple yet powerful way to organize and quickly reach your preferred websites, improving your daily browsing workflow.

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.

Visual Bookmarks requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

Visual Bookmarks has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
