About PinGrid
Tired of cluttered pinned tabs eating your tab bar? PinGrid replaces Chrome's built-in pinned tabs with a clean, searchable grid of your most-used pages — accessible from a popup or a persistent side panel.
Pin once. Click to open. Search to find. No more lost pinned tabs across windows. No more background tabs hogging memory.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✦ WHY PINGRID?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Chrome's pinned tabs have problems:
- They clutter your tab bar
- They're always loaded, eating RAM
- They get lost when you have multiple windows
- They disappear if Chrome crashes
PinGrid fixes all of it. Your pins live in a tidy grid, instantly available, never running in the background.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✦ FEATURES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📌 Grid view of your pinned pages — favicon, title, one-click open
🔍 Instant search across titles and URLs — find any pin in a keystroke
📑 Side panel mode — keep PinGrid open beside your work (Alt+P)
⚡ Smart open — clicks an existing tab if the page is already open instead of duplicating it
➕ Three ways to add pins:
• + button to pin the current tab
• Right-click any page → "Add page to PinGrid"
• Right-click any link → "Add link to PinGrid"
🔀 Drag-to-reorder your grid
📥 One-click migration — imports your existing Chrome pinned tabs and unpins them in one go
🎨 Clean, minimal design that stays out of your way
⌨️ Keyboard shortcut (Alt+P) opens the side panel from anywhere
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✦ PERFECT FOR
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- Developers juggling docs, repos, dashboards, and staging URLs
- Researchers and students with frequently-revisited sources
- Anyone who pins 10+ tabs and has lost track of what's where
- Productivity nerds who want a faster bookmark workflow
- Side-panel power users who keep tools docked beside their work
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✦ PRICING
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Free forever for up to 4 pins — try every feature, no signup, no credit card.
Need more? Unlock unlimited pins for a one-time £2.99. No subscriptions. No accounts. No ads. Ever.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✦ PRIVACY
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Your pins stay on your device. PinGrid uses Chrome's local storage — we never see your URLs, browsing history, or page content. The only network call is a periodic license check (for paying users) and that sends only a license key, nothing else.
