I got tired of the messy Gemini sidebar, so I built a free extension to add Folders, Colors, and Search! (Open Source) ๐Ÿ“โœจ

Hi everyone! ๐Ÿ‘‹

I use Gemini daily for both work and personal projects, but I was getting increasingly frustrated with the sidebar. It was becoming a chaotic list where I couldn't find a conversation from two weeks ago without scrolling forever.

I looked for existing extensions, but they were either paid, limited, or didn't do exactly what I wanted. So, I decided to build my own.

Introducing Gemini Ultimate Organizer.

Itโ€™s a lightweight Chrome extension that adds a "layer" to Gemini to help you keep your chats organized.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Key Features:

  • ๐Ÿ“ Custom Folders: Create as many folders as you need (Work, Coding, Recipes, etc.).
  • ๐ŸŽจ Color Coding: Assign specific colors to folders to find them at a glance.
  • ๐Ÿ” Global Search: Finally! A search bar to filter through your folders and chat titles instantly.
  • โ˜๏ธ Cloud Sync: Uses chrome.storage.sync, so your folders follow you across computers if you're logged into Chrome.
  • โšก Quick Organize: A small + button appears next to every chat in the sidebar to file it away in two clicks.
  • ๐Ÿ“ Prompt Manager: Save your most used prompts and insert them with one click.
  • ๐Ÿ”’ Privacy Focused: No external database. Your data stays in your browser/Google account.

Is it free? Yes, 100%. This is a passion project. No ads, no "Premium" subscription, no data tracking. It is Open Source (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license), so you can inspect the code, contribute, or fork it for personal use.

๐Ÿ“ฅ How to try it? It's not on the Chrome Web Store yet (submission is in progress), but you can install it manually in 1 minute:

  1. Download the code from GitHub: https://github.com/AinsTitor/Gemini-Ultimate-Organizer
  2. Go to chrome://extensions/ in your browser.
  3. Toggle "Developer mode" in the top right corner.
  4. Click "Load unpacked" and select the folder you just downloaded.
  5. Refresh Gemini, and you're good to go!

Iโ€™d love to get your feedback. Let me know if you find any bugs or have ideas for new features!

Cheers!

EDIT : I've removed the images, new ones will come!
