Customization and Spaces in Shift Browser

Shift isn't just a place to view websites. It's a native integration for all your favorite tools. You can build a workspace that fits your brain perfectly.

Organize your world

  • Spaces: Create separate areas for work, school, or personal life. Each Space keeps your apps and bookmarks separate so you can stay focused.

  • Adding and using apps: Bring tools like Gmail, Slack, or Asana directly into your sidebar.

  • Anchored apps: Pin your most-used tools so they're always visible and ready to go.

  • Customization: Personalize your look by choosing a theme or rearranging your sidebar to match your style.

  • Adding bookmarks:  Save your go-to sites so you can get back to them with one click.

Sync your setup

  • Stay in sync: Sign in to your account to take your setup with you. Your apps, Spaces, and settings will follow you to any device where you use Shift.

Shift is your new command center. Once you've added your apps and built your Spaces, you'll unlock a level of flow you've never had before. We're so glad you're here to build it with us.
