AI 产品解读Chrome browser integration with GNOME Shell, enabling users to install, manage, enable, and uninstall GNOME Shell extensions directly from the extensions.gnome.org website via native messaging to the local GNOME desktop environment.
Linux GNOME desktop users need a bridge between their Chrome browser and the GNOME Shell extension system. Without this extension, there is no way to install or manage GNOME Shell extensions from the extensions.gnome.org website in Chrome. The extension also solves extension list synchronization across devices.
User installs the chrome-gnome-shell native connector package on their Linux system, then installs this Chrome extension. When visiting extensions.gnome.org, the extension injects scripts that communicate with GNOME Shell via the native connector, allowing one-click install/uninstall/enable/disable of GNOME Shell extensions directly from the website. Optionally, users can enable extension list synchronization to sync their GNOME extensions across Chrome instances via their Google account.

- 目标用户
- Linux desktop users running GNOME Shell / Users who browse extensions.gnome.org to find and install GNOME Shell extensions / Users of distributions like Arch, Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, Ubuntu
- The optional Google account sync feature uses chrome.storage.sync, which relies on the user being signed into Chrome with a Google account—but this is a Chrome feature, not a login requirement of the extension itself. The distinction is clear: core functionality needs no login, sync is opt-in.

No paid features exist. The 'upgrade' keyword in locale files refers to upgrading GNOME Shell extension versions (e.g., 'Extension Top Icons can be upgraded'), not paid upgrades. The 'pro' keyword appears only in locale file descriptions (project title descriptions) and in messages about upgrading the native host connector for missing APIs. The extension is GPL-3.0 licensed, open-source, and the destination service extensions.gnome.org is a free repository. No billing, payment, subscription, or licensing APIs are present in the source code.

- The core workflow—browsing extensions.gnome.org and managing GNOME Shell extensions via native messaging—requires no login. The optional 'Synchronize GNOME Shell extensions list' feature uses chrome.storage.sync which syncs via the user's Google account, but this is entirely optional and not needed for the primary product functionality. The extension has no login UI and the destination service (extensions.gnome.org) does not require an account to install/manage extensions.
Although GNOME Shell integration extension is running, native host connector is not detected.
Broken.
Top 10. Funcionou bem no Ubuntu 22.04. Parabéns para o desenvolvedor!
Für Ubuntu 23.04 and newer: Terminal: $ sudo apt-get install gnome-browser-connector The warning / error message disappears and Gnome extensions could be managed from Chrome.
I love GNU/Linux!
Used to be amazing but now no longer does anything. I expect someone upstream has badly borked gnome on ubuntu, no extensions work, can't install new ones, can't configure existing ones.
Поставил два из своей щедрости, было бы очень полезное приложение если бы работало. Идея хорошая конечно, но по факту не реализовано. Пользовался бы с удовольствием если бы довели до ума) Пока что 2...
Love this extension, however it has stopped working. I did upgrade to Ubuntu 22.10 early so was expected some things would be broken until after official release. Just a PSA for anyone thinking of doing the same. "Your native host connector do not support following APIs: v6. Probably you should upgrade native host connector or install plugins for missing APIs. Refer documentation for instructions." As per the instructions: Sudo apt-get install chrome-gnome-shell Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done chrome-gnome-shell is already the newest version (10.1-5). 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Since long time it is broken, saying there is a problem with the installation of the "native host-connector", one should read the documentation. Nope. There is othing in the documentation that helps to get it running. As many pieces of Gnome, things does not get developped properly...
Although GNOME Shell integration extension is running, native host connector is not detected Stopped working last month or so.
