Make web apps feel like yours

PWA Customizer is an open-source Chrome and Chromium extension that lets you change an installed web app’s title-bar color and page title. Settings are saved separately for each website.

Features

• Choose a light, dark, or custom title-bar color for an app window.
• Use a short or custom page title, including in regular browser tabs.
• Turn each control on or off independently and restore the website’s original appearance.
• Share YouTube color and title preferences with the compatible YouTools extension.

Getting started

Download or clone the GitHub repository. Open chrome://extensions in Chrome, enable Developer mode, and select Load unpacked. Choose the repository’s extension folder and keep it in place. Open a website, select PWA Customizer, and enable a control to customize it. See the repository for the latest installation and compatibility details.

Preferences are stored locally in your browser. The extension requests access to a website when you enable a control. The browser and operating system determine the final appearance of app windows. Browser-protected pages cannot be customized.
