Extension summary

Supports both Classic and Lightning Experiences and includes separate icons for production, sandbox, and develop/scratch orgs.

To use the extension, simply navigate to a Salesforce org and the extension will automatically select a random color for it then update the favicon with that color. Now every time you visit that org, the colored favicon will be displayed instead of the default Salesforce favicon. At this point you can also visit the options page to change the color for any org you've visited.

Awesome tool that really helps me everyday! (making sure I don't mess around in the wrong Salesforce org 😉) It even supports the new "salesforce-setup.com" domain.

I love the option to change colors if two icons are close in color!
by Megan Ardis, 2024-10-01

The extension functions as anticipated, but it has a frustrating flaw: settings and configurations fail to apply when reinstalling the browser or profile, likely due to a lack of integration with the Microsoft Edge sync process. In contrast, other extensions, such as "Org Header for Salesforce," restore seamlessly. Should the developer resolve this issue, I would gladly rate it five stars.
