  **Elevate your Google Drive workflow with the native-feeling Pinned section.**
  
  GDrive Sidebar Pinner seamlessly integrates a "Pinned" category into your Google Drive sidebar, placing your most critical folders exactly where they belong: right below Starred. Stop digging through deep folder hierarchies and start navigating with a single click.
  
  ### Premium Features
  
  - **Native Integration:** Looks and feels like a built-in Google Drive feature. No clunky overlays or distracting UI.
  - **Smart Color Sync:** Your folder colors are automatically detected and preserved. If a folder is Blue in Drive, it stays Blue in your Pinned list.
  - **Multi-Account Support:** (NEW) Perfectly handles multiple Google accounts in the same browser profile. Your work pins stay at work, and your personal pins stay personal.
  - **Instant Access:** A floating "Pin Folder" button appears only when you need it, letting you bookmark any folder in a split second.
  - **Cloud Sync:** Your pinned folders are synced across all your Chrome browsers via your Google account.
  - **Privacy First:** Lightweight Manifest V3 implementation. No tracking, no analytics, and no remote code. Your data stays between you and Google.
  
  ### How to Use
  
  1. Open any folder in Google Drive.
  2. Click the floating "Pin Folder" button in the bottom-right.
  3. Your folder is now instantly accessible from the "Pinned" section in the left sidebar.
  4. To remove, simply click "Unpin" while inside that folder.
  
  ### Built for Power Users
  
  Whether you are managing complex client projects or just want to keep your tax receipts handy, GDrive Sidebar Pinner turns Google Drive into a high-efficiency workspace.
