BookMacster 2.6 – Organize and manage bookmarks, sync across browsers.

April 6, 2018

BookMacster is a bookmarks manager for your Mac, which plays nicely with iCloud, Sign In to Chrome, and Firefox Sync. It can be used in three ways, or all three:

Manage Browser Bookmarks. Add alphabetizing and tagging. Verify, fix dupes, consolidate.
Cross-Browser Syncing. Sync bookmarks of Safari Firefox, Chrome, and more among all your devices.
Directly. Keep your bookmarks in one central store, accessible within web browsers.

Features

Import/export with Safari, Firefox, Chrome, iCab, Opera 11-12, Roccat, Pinboard, Delicious, Diigo, and OmniWeb.
Easily organize with Tags, Hierarchy, or both.
Verifies bookmarks, fixes redirects and duplicates.

Scriptable to collect new bookmarks from NetNewsWire or similar apps.

What’s New

Version 2.6:

In the Syncing button in the document toolbar, the Ready state is now indicated by a yellow dot instead of a green dot, to emphasize the fact that syncing is Ready but does not begin until the window is closed.
Now supports importing and exporting the old Netscape .html files which are still exported and imported by most web browsers and bookmarking services.
No longer mangles numeric literal IPv6 URLs upon entering them.
If the Launch in Background preference is switched on, and a web browser is the active application before the app is launched, and the app is launched from the macOS Dock or LaunchPad, and one or both Global Keyboard Shortcuts are configured, those keyboard shortcuts now work (as expected) in the web browser immediately, without the user first needing activate a different application and then return to the web browser.
