Browser Extensions That Might Just Save Your Sanity

Because your browser should help you, not stress you out.

Let’s be honest browsers have become our second brains. We live in them. But when that second brain is cluttered with 47 open tabs, distracting notifications, and forgotten passwords... it’s not doing us any favors.

Luckily, browser extensions exist to turn that chaos into calm. And not just any extensions we’re talking about the ones that are reliable, helpful, and genuinely make a difference.

Here’s a list of the best sanity-saving browser extensions you can actually count on:

Toby for Tabs

Still the gold standard for organizing your tabs. Toby lets you save and group tabs into collections, so you can finally stop living in tab-overload mode. It’s perfect for planning, research, or simply keeping work separate from “searching for the perfect pasta recipe.”

StayFocused

Your willpower has a limit. StayFocusd doesn’t. This extension blocks time-wasting sites after your preset limit so you can focus better without becoming a monk. Want to avoid falling into a scroll hole? This one has your back.

Grammarly

You type. Grammarly saves you from sounding like you wrote that message while half-asleep. It fixes grammar, spelling, and tone in real-time. Bonus: It also offers smart suggestions while still letting you stay in control.

Momentum

Imagine opening a new tab and being greeted by a calming image, a motivational quote, and your daily to-do list instead of a blank white screen. Momentum turns your new tab page into a tiny digital breath of fresh air.

Loom

Screen recording, but make it easy. Loom lets you record your screen and voice in seconds great for work demos, quick tutorials, or saving yourself from writing yet another long explanation email.

Bitwarden

If your brain is tired of remembering 97 passwords (and reusing the same one for everything), meet Bitwarden. This secure, open-source password manager stores and autofills your credentials across sites.

LINER

A digital highlighter for the internet. With LINER, you can highlight text on web pages, save articles, and even get smarter search results. Perfect for students, researchers, and curious minds.

Picture-in-Picture by Google

Watch a YouTube tutorial while you work in another tab. This extension lets you float videos in a mini window, always on top. Multitasking without the chaos.

You don’t need a total tech detox just smarter tools. These extensions aren’t gimmicks. They’re the digital duct tape holding your sanity together in 2025.
