Too Many Chrome Profiles. Not Enough Ways to Tell Them Apart.

If you use Google Chrome for multiple businesses, clients, or personal accounts, you probably know the frustration.

You have several Chrome windows open. They all look nearly identical. You're constantly clicking between them, checking profile icons, or opening the wrong account.

Chrome lets you assign different profile themes, but those colors aren't always easy to distinguish when you're viewing several windows at once.

That's exactly why Profile Border exists.

Instead of relying on tiny profile icons or subtle browser colors, Profile Border places a visible, customizable colored border around your Chrome windows.

Green for your personal profile. Blue for work. Red for one client. Yellow for another. You choose the colors. You know which window is which.

Before and after comparison: six identical gray Chrome windows labeled 'Which window is which?' next to the same windows with blue, yellow, red, green, purple, and teal Profile Border outlines labeled 'Color makes it obvious.'

Make Every Chrome Window Instantly Recognizable

Create a visually distinct workspace without changing how you use Chrome.

Color-Code Each Chrome Profile

Assign a different border color to each Chrome profile. Identify your work, personal, business, and client accounts without having to inspect tabs or profile icons.

See Your Profiles in Mac Mission Control

If you use Mission Control on a Mac to view all your open windows, Profile Border helps you visually distinguish supported Chrome windows using their colored borders. No more scanning nearly identical browser previews to find the right account.

Identify Windows in Windows Task View

Profile Border also works on Windows, helping distinguish Chrome windows when switching between them, including in Windows Task View.

Customize the Look

Choose your own border colors, adjust border thickness, and enable an optional glow effect for additional visibility. You can also add a custom profile or window label.

Thin While Working. Bold When Inactive.

Keep borders subtle while you're actively working. Profile Border can display a thinner border for the active window and a thicker one when the window becomes inactive.

Separate Settings for Every Profile

Each Chrome profile saves its own border preferences. Customize each profile independently so your colors stay consistent.
