Browser Hacks That Actually Save You Time (Chrome, Edge, Safari)
Published 29 August 2025

Your web browser is one of the most-used tools in your workday, but are you using it to its full potential?
Whether you’re on Chrome, Edge, or Safari, these simple hacks can save you time and make your workflow smoother.
1. Pin Your Tabs
If you always keep email, project management tools, or CRM open, pin those tabs. Right-click the tab and select Pin. This keeps them small, locked, and always accessible.
2. Search Across Tabs
Lost in a sea of tabs? In Chrome and Edge, press Ctrl + Shift + A (or click the little down arrow in the top-right) to search through all open tabs instantly.
3. Reader Mode for Focus
Distractions everywhere? Safari and Edge have Reader Mode, which strips away ads and clutter so you can focus on the content.
4. Send Tabs Between Devices
Working on the go? Chrome and Edge let you send tabs from your desktop to your phone (and vice versa). Just right-click the tab and select Send to Your Devices.
5. Use Extensions Wisely
Extensions like Grammarly (for writing), LastPass (for password management), and Dark Reader (for eye comfort) can make your life easier. Just make sure they come from trusted sources.
Bonus Tip: Clear your cache regularly to keep your browser fast and avoid glitches.
