Pinned Google Keep

Go to the pinned Google Keep tab. If it doesn't exist, it's created.

Pinned Google Keep is a handy Chrome extension designed to streamline your note-taking workflow by providing quick access to your pinned Google Keep tab. Formerly known as "GKeep Panel," this extension compensates for limitations in modern WebExtensions by leveraging pinned tabs.

With a configurable keyboard shortcut (default Alt + Shift + K), you can instantly open the Google Keep tab if it exists or create it if it doesn't. Pressing the shortcut again returns you to your previous tab, making navigation seamless and efficient. This extension enhances productivity by keeping your notes easily accessible without interrupting your browsing experience.

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.

Pinned Google Keep requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. 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 Firefox add-on.
