![]() I use ⇧⌘P for my home (" Privat" = private) profile, and ⇧⌘B for work (" Barsoom"). The "Menu Title" should exactly match the name of your profile. ![]() In the "Keyboard" system preferences, go to "App Shortcuts" and add a shortcut for Google Chrome. ![]() Slightly better, but who wants to mouse around?īecause Chrome lists your profiles in a "People" menu (in the menu bar alongside "File", "Edit", "Bookmarks" etc), it's easy to map shortcuts yourself, at least on OS X. Or, you can right-click the profile name, then click the profile you want. To switch profiles, you can left-click the profile name on the top right of Chrome, then "Switch Person", then click the profile you want. To add a profile, see Google's instructions. You can minimize your "Work" window(s) when you go home for the day. I have things set up so I can switch to one or the other with a keyboard shortcut.Įach profile has its own separate history, cookies/sessions, bookmarks bar, extensions and so on, which is really quite handy: you can be logged into separate Google Apps accounts, have adblocker extensions when browsing privately but not professionally, put Trello boards and various work tools only in your "Work" bookmarks bar.Īnd, of course, just clearly grouping home and work tabs separately is a win. I use the same notebook computer both at home and at work, so I have one "Home" user profile and one "Work" profile in Chrome. While these two features aren't specifically intended to make a web developer's life easier, they do! This is how. Google Chrome supports multiple user profiles, and has an "incognito mode".
