Tired of juggling tabs to keep an eye on crucial information? Always on Top Window for Chrome is here to change that. This handy browser utility lets you pin any webpage, keeping it visible in a compact, floating window so you can enhance your productivity.

↔️ Adjust your view The floating popup window created by this tool isn't fixed; you can drag it anywhere on your screen and resize it to your preferred dimensions. This flexibility ensures it complements your workflow, not obstructs it.
How it works:
- Click the extension icon to pop out the current tab, or Right-click any link and select “Open link in Always-on-top Window” to open it in a floating popup.
- Move and resize the popup as needed to fit your workflow.

Data source
Covers every Chrome Web Store extension with at least 100 users, found through the store's public sitemap. User counts are read from public listing pages. The 10% most-used extensions are refreshed daily, the next 40% weekly and the next 40% monthly; the least-used 10% are not refreshed. Google displays rounded user counts (and caps the display at 10,000,000+), so small changes may not be visible. Rating counts above 1,000 are rounded (e.g. 1.6K).
