Search your Bookmarks and Folders
You can search your Google Chrome™ bookmarks and folders from within the app by pressing the search button (or menu, search) or by using the Android Search Widget.

- Light. A fresher white look with a more professional header bar, default icons for bookmarks with no icon and improved popups.

Decrypt all Google Chrome™ bookmarks safely and securely
If your Chrome bookmarks are encrypted, CMarks can easily decrypt them automatically.
You will, however, need to supply the encryption password or passphrase. For your safety, this is immediately encoded one-way to a secure hash that can only be used to encrypt/decrypt bookmarks.
If you don't want to supply your encryption credentials, you can simply disable it in Google Chrome™ and the app will no longer need or ask.
