Add to Chrome — freeOne-Click Import
Bring your Chrome bookmarks into Zen Tabz without exporting and re-importing files by hand.
Bring Your Chrome Bookmarks Across
Import your existing Chrome bookmarks into Zen Tabz and organise them next to your saved tabs and sessions. Your folders come with them, and your original Chrome bookmarks stay exactly where they are.
Import without losing anything
What gets imported
Chrome keeps bookmarks in folders, and Zen Tabz preserves that structure when you import, so the way you already organise links does not have to be redone. Once imported, those links sit alongside your saved tab collections, which means one place to look instead of a bookmark folder here and a saved session there.
- Your bookmark folders are preserved as collections.
- Imported links can be organised alongside saved tabs and sessions.
- Search covers imported bookmarks as well as saved tabs.
Your originals are never touched
Importing copies your bookmarks into Zen Tabz; it does not move or delete anything from Chrome. If you decide Zen Tabz is not for you, your Chrome bookmarks are exactly as you left them, and you can export a copy from Zen Tabz in standard HTML at any time. There is no lock-in in either direction.
Why put bookmarks and tabs together
A lot of what people bookmark is really a session they meant to come back to: twenty research tabs, a trip being planned, a reading list. Those end up split between folders of links and saved sessions. Importing lets links and tabs share one organised home, so the named collection becomes the system rather than two overlapping piles.
