Is there a way to add a chrome app shortcut to my bookmarks bar in Google Chrome?

Question

Some Chrome extensions have bookmark icons that are automatically added to the bookmarks bar, but, so far as I can tell apps such as Postman can't be added directly to the shortcut bar.

If I want to launch an "app" (i.e. not one of the extensions which already show up in the toolbar) such as this, I have to open the "Apps" shortcut window, and then find the app (or launch it separately from the app launcher).

I would very much like to have a bookmark to a specific App in the bookmark bar. Is this possible?

Answer 1

It's not possible.

The closest implementable thing is an extension with a toolbar icon that launches specifically the app.
Or toolbar popup launchers like Apps Launcher or AppJump App Launcher and Organizer.

Answer 2

Not the direct answer to the question, but this question is about quickly launching signal.

Two other solutions include:

1. Add a shortcut to your Launcher or Desktop

Have Signal Desktop already open Right our Double click on your app icon On Mac: Choose Options > Choose Keep in Dock On Windows: Select More > Pin to taskbar

2. The shortcut Alt + S, however this is being Depreciated:
