Quick Access Overview

Quick Access provides instant access to frequently used websites through the extension sidebar, supporting both compact icon display and detailed list view.

What is Quick Access

Quick Access saves website shortcuts directly in the extension sidebar. Unlike browser bookmarks, these shortcuts are always visible and open new tabs when clicked.

Two Types of Items

Quick Access Items:

  • Save website URLs as shortcuts
  • Each click opens a new tab
  • Can be organized into groups
  • Persist across browser sessions

Pinned Tabs:

  • Pin existing browser tabs to sidebar top
  • Click to switch to existing tab (no new tab created)
  • Tied to current browser session

Two Display Modes

Icon View (Top Sidebar)

  • Compact icons with tooltips
  • Groups show as colored buttons or favicon clusters
  • Right-click for management options
  • Drag to reorder

List View (Dedicated Panel)

  • Full website titles and URLs
  • Expandable groups with item counts
  • Search and keyboard navigation
  • Detailed information display
