Make folders, drag bookmarks between them, and edit each one from its menu. - **Manager:** ⋯ -> Bookmarks - **Folders:** Make them from the folder picker when saving - **Sort:** Manual order only ## Organize bookmarks in Chrome on iPhone and iPad 1. **Open the manager** the three-dot menu (⋯) -> ⋯ -> Bookmarks. 2. **Make folders** When saving a bookmark, tap the folder and choose New folder. 3. **Move bookmarks** Open a bookmark's menu -> Edit -> change the folder. 4. **Sort and search** Use the search box at the top to find a bookmark by name or site. Menu labels change between versions of Chrome (iPhone); the shortcut and the menu don't. ## A folder plan that holds up One folder per project or area, no deeper than two levels, and the Bookmarks bar folder kept to the ten or so pages you open daily. Put everything else under Other bookmarks; search finds it faster than browsing ever will. ## Duplicates Chrome (iPhone) has no built-in duplicate finder. Sort a folder by name and duplicates sit next to each other; delete the extras. Importing the same HTML file twice is the usual cause. ## On a phone Chrome on iPhone has no bookmarks bar and can't install extensions. On iOS, Chrome's bookmarks are private to the app; Safari's are separate. Chrome extensions, including Private Bookmarks, run on desktop browsers only, so the private vault lives on your computer; if you need the same pages on your phone, open them from a note or a password manager instead of a synced bookmark. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is the shortcut for the bookmark manager in Chrome (iPhone)? There is no shortcut on a phone; open the three-dot menu (⋯) -> ⋯ -> Bookmarks. ### Can I sort bookmarks alphabetically? Not on a phone; the order is manual, and sync keeps the order set on a computer. ### How do I move a lot of bookmarks at once? Touch and hold to select several, then use the move option in the menu. ### Can I organize private bookmarks the same way? Private Bookmarks has its own folders, favorites and search inside Chrome's side panel, and its folder names are encrypted along with the bookmarks. ## Sources - [Google Chrome Help (iPhone & iPad): Create, view, and edit bookmarks](https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/188842?co=GENIE.Platform%3DiOS) ## Organize bookmarks in other browsers - [How to organize favorites in Microsoft Edge](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/edge) - [How to organize bookmarks in Chrome on a Chromebook](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/chromebook) - [How to organize bookmarks in Brave](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/brave) - [How to organize bookmarks in Opera](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/opera) - [How to organize bookmarks in Vivaldi](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/vivaldi) - [How to organize bookmarks in Chrome on Android](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/chrome-android) - [How to use Chrome's Bookmark Manager](https://www.vaultforyou.app/blog/chrome-bookmark-manager) - [All browsers: organize bookmarks](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks) ## More for Chrome on iPhone and iPad - [How to bookmark a page in Chrome on iPhone and iPad](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/add-bookmark/chrome-iphone) - [How to delete bookmarks in Chrome on iPhone and iPad](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/delete-bookmarks/chrome-iphone) - [How to restore lost bookmarks in Chrome on iPhone and iPad](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/restore-bookmarks/chrome-iphone) - [How to edit bookmarks in Chrome on iPhone and iPad](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/edit-bookmarks/chrome-iphone) - [How to sync bookmarks between devices in Chrome on iPhone and iPad](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/sync-bookmarks/chrome-iphone) - [How to hide bookmarks in Chrome on iPhone and iPad](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/hide-bookmarks/chrome-iphone) --- Private Bookmarks by VaultForYou is a Chrome extension made by VaultForYou.
