Image from store xBrowserSync
Description from store xBrowserSync is a completely free and open source tool for syncing your bookmarks and browser data between your desktop browsers. xBrowserSync respects your privacy and gives you complete anonymity — no sign up is required and no personal data is ever collected. It is also completely secure; your data is encrypted client-side with military grade encryption, Even if someone intercepted your data, only you can decrypt it. xBrowserSync enriches your bookmarks with the addition of descriptions and tags. An intuitive search interface lets you find bookmarks quickly and easily, or simply browse your bookmarks hierarchy by folders. And don’t ever worry about losing your data thanks to the included back up and restore functionality. The web extension fully supports your native desktop browser bookmarking features; xBrowserSync will preserve your existing bookmarks hierarchy and any changes you make using the native bookmarking functionality are synced by xBrowserSync automatically. xBrowserSync will even add metadata to new bookmarks automatically! With the xBrowserSync mobile app you can use xBrowserSync on the go with your Android device. Once you have created a new sync on your desktop browser using the web extension, simply scan your sync ID code into the app and enter your password to connect to your synced data. Add new bookmarks easily by sharing from your favourite apps (browsers, YouTube, Spotify and any other app that shares URLs), xBrowserSync will even populate the bookmark properties for you. For ultimate privacy, configure your very own xBrowserSync cloud service on your Linux or Windows server to sync to. The code for the xBrowserSync cloud service is open source and is easy to set up for any relatively tech savvy individual. Welcome to browser syncing as it should be: secure, anonymous and free! Key features: ★ Sync bookmarks between desktop browsers (syncing of additional browser data will be added in future versions), and access bookmarks on the move using the xBrowserSync Android app. ★ Absolutely free, there are no charges for using the service. Ever. ★ Totally anonymous, no sign up or submission of personal data required, just install and sync. ★ Encrypts your browser data client-side using military grade encryption that only you can decrypt. ★ Browse, find, modify and share bookmarks quickly and easily. ★ Enrich your bookmarks with descriptions and tags. ★ Works with native desktop browser bookmarking features. ★ Add bookmarks with the mobile app by sharing from your favourite apps. ★ Share bookmarks with friends with the mobile app. ★ Back up and restore your synced data for total peace of mind. ★ Run your very own xBrowserSync cloud service for syncing in complete privacy.

  • (2025-06-20) Joachim Hilgers: has been synchronizing all my browsers and devices for several years: Chrome, Brave, Edge, Vivalidi on Win + Mac no problems. just works. This is the first extension any fresh browser gets ;-)
  • (2025-06-04) Sir Thanksalot: WARNING!!! DO NOT USE THIS EXTENSION. FIRST. Backup your Chrome and Firefox User Profiles. If you don't know how, You should not be here at all! Go do that first and make sure you have Backups. If you want to sync Bookmarks between Chrome<>FireFox between Multiple Computers. This Extension will either DESTROY your Bookmarks or sync duplicates of them. THIS EXTENSION IS NOT FOR NOVICE USERS. DO NOT USE IT IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. It is needlessly complicated, does not work well with Google Sync or Firefox sync. During the process of syncing and populating bookmarks, if you're on a laptop or weak PC it will use 100% CPU and ALL of your RAM, bringing your laptop to a stop. Do not use this on a weak battery powered machine. If you want to transfer your bookmarks between Chrome<>Firefox, do it manually. It will take less time than dealing with the repercussions of using this extension. BACKUP YOUR User Profiles, and bookmarks!
  • (2024-12-24) Jason Smith: used to be FANTASTIC - i use edge on PC and chrome on mobile as i seem to get best experience - so i RELY on this --- sadly its breaking and chrome says its going to be removed soon. this was/is the ONLY bookmark sync that worked.. please developers try to find a way to fix/make it work again
  • (2024-11-04) Gustavo Godoy: It not longer works. I lost all my bookmarks. Nice...
  • (2024-10-03) Ben Wong: Sad to see Chrome said it will no longer work soon, this is the only bookmark sync that work, the alternatives chrome suggest are not even related to bookmarks.
  • (2024-06-24) Lars Panzerbjørn: One star because it just doesn't work on my chrome browser. I have loads of bookmarks, but it somehow doesn't see them, and doesn't sync them to my other machines.
  • (2024-06-23) ATW Google: Very useful plugin. Thank you. But we should be charged a tiny amount per year per user to make its development better and reliable across all browsers :)
  • (2024-06-10) Александр: Doesn't work on mobile kiwi browser with tab grouping and multi windows at all, says that my browser profile probably corrupted.
  • (2024-05-01) Saudademaru Envy: This used to be a good extension but within the last couple of months, I have had numerous issues with it. Not syncing, reverting a recent change, and just now I added a new bookmark and it just wiped out half my bookmarks. I am using the Brave browser. I have fully uninstalled and reinstalled this as well as tried it on different computers but have had the issues occur on all systems. One common thing I notice is, if I already have a page for a site bookmarked, if I try to bookmark a different page of the same site, it commonly reverts it and gives me an error. Doesn't seem to do it for all sites, which is weird. Anyway, I can no longer use this. Also do note that this extension says it hasn't been updated since like 2020. I don't know why it suddenly stopped working. I've only been using it for about a year. I think the developer gave up on this, but thanks for the time that it did work.
  • (2024-03-20) Felipe Tejada: Super useful extention to have consistency and order with the bookmarks in all (almost, opera is not suported) browsers.
  • (2024-01-17) Vivek Murmu: It doesn't work on kiwi Android browser
  • (2023-11-24) Arnaldo Montoya: It's a very good start. I'm looking forward to seeing where this project goes. For people like me who use Ungoogled Chromium, this is a must-have!
  • (2023-11-18) Serdar: Hello, is there a solution to the error I get when using Edge browser? "Couldn't get bookmark properties URL is invalid or webpage data could

  • (2023-06-12) Niko Cera: 注意:同一浏览器(如Chrome 和 Chrome Beta)不要同时打开,否则同步书签会出现两份重复,建议单独打开需要同步的目标浏览器,Edge 和 Chrome 同时打开同步没有问题,除此之外,同步非常快,很方便!

  • (2023-03-27) Jon Jugston: Read all your bookmarks by DEFAULT. Which means sync replaces ALL of them. So if you want a link to appear in your another browser you MUST have all other bookmarks the same!! Otherwise, sync will replace all the bookmarks with the ones you first install the app My bookmarks are gone now, thank you!

  • (2023-02-01) Henry O'Mad: This is excellent but you do need to understand what you're doing before going ahead. It does give warnings. I've used it for years and not lost anything so far. Thanks.

  • (2022-11-30) Jon Boyer: CHROME >>> EDGE sync worked flawlessly despite not being officially supported, caveats to follow: 1. ALWAYS BACKUP your stuff before installing any extension...duh! 2. WARNING: reading other reviews it seems people think it will merge the new bookmarks into the old bookmarks and this is NOT the case you are copying from your first installed instance Thats this browser right here you are about to install on and create your sync ID. To whatever target you want to move your bookmarks to then you copy and paste the ID to - despite clear warnings about deletion folks still manage to misunderstand what is happening (both browsers up to date and signed into same google account on win 10) Works as advertised - bad reviews are a product of bad user input

  • (2022-11-12) ஆத்தங்கரை சண்முகம்: You lose data. A big no no!. You lose data in a way backup can't really help. Sometimes you just lose a few links sometime entire folders. You don't even know you lost it until after several days when you look for that link. Even if you take regular backups. It is too cumbersome to figure out which got lost where and trying to do a recovery. It shouldn't be hard to design something that will not lose data. If in doubt, dont sync and throw a warning and let the user decide.

  • (2022-10-15) Ichthys: syncs all my bookmarks across all me devices and web browsers (I use more than a few). I especially like how it integrates with the bookmarks bar and works as per normal. I used my main browser first to sync then turn of browser sync so it only syncs through app, after this I install extension on all web browsers and mobile app, it just works. well done to all people involved in this project.

  • (2022-08-19) Kabraxis Luvos: Ditched the extension as it currently only supports bookmarks sync. So no sync for opened tabs or tab groups. Also no support for Opera browser. I will come back eventually if these features have been added.
