• (2025-08-05) Nathan Baker: This extension has promise, but unfortunately it's too buggy to actually be usable. It pains me to write this review because this extension is about 80% of what I want (which is really a Google Chrome implementation of the venerable Panorama Tab Groups from Firefox). However, the whole thing is incredibly buggy. Switching between groups sometimes selects the wrong group (i.e. I have a group called Foo and a group called Bar; I click on Foo and yet the tabs for Bar show up!). At one point I had removed all the tabs from a group. I went to delete the group and the wrong group got deleted! I lost a whole bunch of tabs I had saved. This is what led me to uninstall the extension. It's sad that Arcify fails to deliver on its promise, because otherwise I think it would be pretty close to what I'm looking for.
• (2025-07-09) Michał Matyas: I absolutely love the idea but it just doesn't work well: - Colors are quite bad and there's not enough contrast between the background and the black text. Please allow text to be white (and then selection/button background dark not light) - The drag & drop is super buggy - I was not able to add a tab to the folder even once. The design for the folders is not too great either. - Pinned tab get removed when you close them with CMD+W keyboard shortcut, not sure if it's the browser or the extension but it's too easy to lose them as a result - State sync between the extension and the browser is a bit buggy at times There's A LOT of potential in this extension and I really hope it'll get better with time but in its current state it's simply not usable as a daily driver yet 😭

• (2025-06-28) Corey Blakeborough: It's great - I'm enjoying it a lot! That said, I'm having trouble with a few things that make it hard to keep using. - Re-ordering tabs in Arcify does not re-order them in Chrome itself. So if you close Arcify - or the browser itself - and reopen it, the tabs are in the order they were in before. Similarly, re-ordering tabs in Chrome's tab bar does not re-order them in Arcify. - Moving a tab between spaces/groups just fails in Arcify. Doesn't work at all. I can move the Chrome tab in the tab bar, but Arcify doesn't notice that it moved unless I close and re-open the extension. - Less important, but I want to remove the "pinned" section when I intentionally don't want to use it. Or at least minimize it. Worse, the text "drag a tab here to pin" stays in an absolute position as you scroll down.
• (2025-06-10) Luise Deckert: Love how close it is to the Arc tab management. I do experience some problems with the Favicons. Sometimes they don't show in front of the tabs in the side bar (but they do in the native Chrome tabs in top). Not a big problem, just makes it a bit harder to find the tabs I am looking for.
• (2025-06-09) Sutoris Tibor: This is perfect extension, I love it. only one question, how I can move the Arcify from the right to the left side? I tried it on Edge and Chrome, and it is always on right side.
• (2025-05-31) 史沃茨: finally
• (2025-05-30) Neil Ellis: Yep love it, hope the dev keeps working on this. I would happily Pay to have Arc's features in a browser. The browser is my most important tool and I pay for others happily.
• (2025-05-21) Developer: That's a great expansion! I was going to create the exact same one myself to move from Arc to Chrome and you already made it, super! P.S. Feature request: it would be cool to be able to switch between spaces with a 2 finger swipe (horizontal scroll on macOS)
• (2025-04-30) Kurtis Simpson: This is the best extension of it's kind, no bloat, snappy interface, great work, especially the pinned tabs as bookmarks feature is just *chef's kiss* and smashes arc's janky json storage that requires a script to parse your pinned tabs out. Unfortunately though there's still some issues preventing me from moving fully back from ARC (despite all it's issues it does tab management extremely well). - The first is not the extensions fault, chrome needs to reduce the min width of the side panel, it's current min is around twice the size of my arc sidebar. - The backgrounds for each workspace are way too bright in dark mode, there needs to be a transparent one to just use the browser's theme. - The ctrl+k show/hide shortcut conflicts with a chrome shortcut to 'Search Google' in the address bar. Ideally this would be configurable but at a min it needs to not conflict so it works. - A ctrl+z function for undoing the clean all action, and undoing the most recent pin action (add/remove/move), would also be great, but not essential. - Last one is probably just user error but I couldn't figure out how to add the top level icon only pinned tabs, I can see they're set in the showcase video though so just some instructions on how to do it would go a long way. Keep up the good work, and if you ever open source the project let me know I would love to contribute.
• (2025-03-08) Mohamad Yahia: Great for people who like how Arc does vertical tabs. Doesn't allow much customization but does the job well. Thank you!
• (2025-02-15) Jude Hansen: Unlike a lot of other Arc-likes, this one gets a lot of things right and is very usable. I look forward to future enhancements.
• (2025-02-11) Josef Schelch: Lots of potential. Great to get back to a Chrome based browser and bring the Arc functionality with me. Would love it if a future version supported importing bookmarks as pinned tabs with folders for pins (like Arc). Managing a large-ish list of pinned items is challenging and sometimes has unpredictable results
• (2025-02-05) Hanzalah Bin Sultan: Have been looking for something like this for a while. Thanks for this!
• (2025-02-03) Mohamed Bassem: Fills in a huge gap in chrome!
• (2025-02-03) Tushar Gupta: Works great! Brings one of the best Arc features to Chrome.
