PlugZen
The Chrome extension that manages your Chrome extensions
The only Chrome extension manager that can auto-schedule your extensions. Bulk enable/disable in one tap. Save profiles (Dev Mode, Focus Mode, All On) and switch instantly. Scheduler runs via chrome. alarms, so rules survive popup close (MV3-safe). Zero analytics. All local storage. No host permissions requested. Free forever.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
Built this because I had 47 Chrome extensions installed and my browser was launching in 12 seconds at 4.2GB RAM. Every 'focus session' cost me 30 seconds toggling things in chrome://extensions.
PlugZen is the fix. Bulk toggle, profiles (Dev Mode / Focus Mode / All On), and a real scheduler that survives popup close (MV3 via chrome.alarms). Locks so bulk actions never touch your password manager. All local, zero tracking, no host permissions.
After switching to my 'Focus Mode' profile: 1.1GB RAM, 2-second launch. Zero focus tax.
Free forever. Would love feedback on the scheduler UX — that was the hardest part to design in MV3.
this is exactly what i've been looking for, basically a set it and forget it setup. one thing though, would be awesome if you could add a per-site schedule so extensions like dark reader only kick in on certain domains instead of the whole browser.
Finally something that handles extension scheduling without demanding every site permission under the sun. The profiles idea is genuinely useful, jumped between Dev Mode and Focus Mode a few times and it just worked.
