What it is
Cloud Console Navi for AWS (CCN) is a browser extension that makes the AWS Management Console faster to navigate. It adds a multi-row favorites bar, dropdown menus with quick links to sub-pages for 200+ AWS services, Settings Sync, batch pinning and favorites lists, service aliases, Quick Search and Vim keys, and one-click role switching.
It is built by an independent team and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Amazon Web Services.

Privacy in short
- Settings, aliases and lists stay in your browser unless you use Prime (trial or subscription) and switch on Settings Sync, which stores only the extension's own preferences.
- The Sign-in Hub (your AWS accounts, roles and sessions) never leaves your browser, not even with Settings Sync on. To move your setup to another browser yourself, you can export a settings file and import it on the extension's Account page, in the Import & Export section.
- To deliver the service dropdown menus kept on our servers, the extension sends the public names of the services on your favorites bar (such as ec2), your console language and your time zone.
- No AWS credentials, no AWS account, role or resource data and no browsing history are collected, and there is no analytics or tracking code.
- Data about you reaches our servers only when you sign in, subscribe or send feedback.
