I Built a Chrome Extension Because I Was Tired of Logging In and Out

For years, I've kept a small notebook filled with ideas for apps and developer tools.

Most of them came from one simple question:

"What problem do I keep solving manually every single day?"

The funny part?

Almost none of those ideas became real.

Not because they weren't useful—but because time always got in the way. Between work, family, and side projects, building everything felt impossible.

Then Generative AI arrived.

Today, building software is faster than ever.

AI can generate code, design interfaces, write documentation, and even help debug problems.

But one thing hasn't changed:

AI can generate software. It can't generate your real-life frustrations.

And those frustrations are often where the best product ideas begin.

The Problem

As a web developer, I constantly switch between multiple accounts

Some examples:

• Personal Google account


• Work Google account


• Client GitHub account


• Multiple ChatGPT accounts


• Facebook Business accounts


• Account to Testing Between Users

Every day looked like this:

Login → Logout → Login → Logout...

Chrome Profiles help...

...until you only need to switch one website.

Opening another browser or open an incognito tab just to change anoterh account felt like overkill.

So I decided to build something.

Introducing Account Switcher

Account Switcher is a Chrome Extension that lets you save and restore multiple login sessions for websites.

Instead of logging out every time, you simply choose the session you want.

Current Features

• Save websites


• Save multiple login sessions


• One-click session switching


• Session management


• Local storage only


• Privacy-first


• No cloud synchronization


• Lightweight interface

Who Is It For?

I originally built it for myself.

But I realized many people have the same workflow:

• Developers


• QA Engineers


• Digital Marketers


• Freelancers


• AI Power Users


• Customer Support Teams

If you manage multiple accounts, you've probably experienced the same frustration.

Privacy Matters

One thing I cared about from the beginning was privacy.

Everything stays on your own computer.

• No analytics


• No tracking


• No cloud sync


• No external server

Your sessions remain under your control.

Building in Public

I still have many ideas:

• Search improvements ( Semantic Search )


• Session backup Export and Import


• Cross-device sync (optional)


• Workspace management

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

What feature would make this extension useful for your workflow?
