How to add bookmark separators in Chrome and other browsers

By Sam Wilson. Last updated August 1, 2026.

Adding a separator takes a few seconds. Open Diviide, pick a color, and drag a separator onto your bookmarks bar. The browser keeps it right away. You get a small marker to place between your groups of bookmarks. Diviide is built for Chrome and other Chromium browsers, where the icon sticks the moment you drop it.

The steps

  1. Show your bookmarks bar.
  2. Open Diviide and pick a color.
  3. Find a separator by category or search.
  4. Drag it onto your bar, where you want the separator.
  5. Repeat for each one, between your groups of bookmarks.

Want a label on it? Open the Label section, turn on Include label, and type your text before you drag. Labels shine inside folders, where a short heading keeps a long list readable. You can also format the label so it reads like a folder heading. And if you need a normal bookmark first, see how to create bookmarks.

Pick a color, then drag the separator straight onto your bar.

Cannot see the bookmarks bar?

In Chrome, Edge, Brave, and Arc, press Ctrl + Shift + B (Cmd + Shift + B on a Mac) to show it. For more, see how to show the bookmarks bar.

Built for Chrome and Chromium browsers

Diviide is built for Chrome, Edge, Brave, and Arc. Drag an icon onto the bar and it sticks right away, because Chromium caches the icon as you drag it in. If you want the same look as Chrome's own built-in divider, search the tool for the Chrome Separator icon.

Common questions

How do I add a separator to my bookmarks bar?
Open Diviide, pick a color, then drag any separator onto your bookmarks bar. The browser saves it as a bookmark right away. That gives you a clean visual separator.
Do bookmark separators work in Chrome?
Yes, and Chrome is where they work best. The same goes for other Chromium browsers like Edge, Brave, and Arc: the favicon is cached as you drag the icon over, so the separator keeps its icon and color.
Do I need an extension to add bookmark separators?
No. Diviide is a website, not an extension. You drag separators straight from the page onto your bar. Nothing to install, no permissions to grant.
