From note-taking to time tracking, here are nine Chrome extensions that can truly help you to get more done in your day. This listicle is going to jump around to all kinds of areas, but by the end you’ll have a decent collection of new Chrome extension that will come together to save time and make you much more productive.
1. Grammarly For Chrome
Grammarly is a writing improvement tool available as a Chrome extension so you don’t have to paste all your text into the website version. You get grammar and typo corrections in real-time as you write, so if those areas have presented trouble for you in the past, you now have a helper there with you every step of the way. When you upgrade to the premium version of Grammarly, you also get recommendations on tone, clarity, and word choice.
2. Clockify
The time-tracking app. Clockify has website, app, and extension versions. For maximum productivity, you’ll want to go with the Chrome extension. The extension lets you generate projects, task tracking, timesheets, schedules, and reports. It’s especially useful for freelancers and anyone doing work outside the typical day-job setting.
3. BlockSite
BlockSite is a Chrome extension that lets you block websites and apps on your device. The idea is that by removing the ease with which you can access your distracting sites, you’ll stay focused on your work. You can set schedules for the blocking, so you’ll only be unable to access those sites and apps during the hours that you set.
4. Win The Day
Chrome extension Win the Day helps you determine your objectives for the day and then work towards them. You can set one big, main goal and then add in smaller, daily goals that help you build up slowly to the ultimate one. The extension also allows you to identify and track your habit forming. So, in case you’re looking to alter a behavior you already have, it can help to see your progress on your screen day after day.
5. Scribe
Scribe is a Chrome extension that lets you record your clicks and keystrokes as you go through a process. It then automatically generates screenshots and written steps to create ordered tutorials for training purposes. You can edit any part of the tutorial you want, save it forever, and then share it with whomever you want.
6. Word Counter Plus
Microsoft Word Counter Plus lets you select text anywhere, right-click it, and instantly see the number of words and characters contained within it. You can also see the average length of the words in that text. This is extremely useful when you’re writing something and trying to adhere to a minimum (or maximum) word count.
7. OneTab
When you need one or several of those tabs, just go to the single tab and pull everything down in a vertical-list format. From there, you can bring as many tabs back to your main window as you need. It also reduces the RAM your device has to use to support all those tabs.
8. Postlight Reader
The Postlight Reader Chrome extension strips away ads and other unnecessary elements to leave just the words and images on the page. The extension really takes user experience into account, allowing you to choose a light or dark theme and even alter the font and size of the text. It also lets you share your optimized versions of web pages with others on social media and through email.
9. ClickUp Chrome Extension
ClickUp on its own is one of the best project management softwares I’ve ever used, so it should come as no surprise that the tool has its own Chrome extension. You can create tasks from anywhere, track your work time, take screenshots, and integrate Gmail and Outlook emails with your tasks.
