Why we like it

Find My Addon earns its place in the Superhive library for consolidating add-on search, categorization and toggling into one configurable pop-up, with support spanning Blender 2.80 through 4.x.

What is Find My Addon - Instant N-Panel Add-On Finder & Manager?

Find My Addon gathers your Blender add-ons into a pop-up you open with a shortcut (default ⇧ R, or your own custom hotkey). Type an add-on name to find it instantly, with live type-ahead that updates while you filter. Filter tabs let you switch between All, Enabled, Disabled and Favorites, and a one-click action jumps you to the exact N-panel tab for any add-on.

The pop-up supports favorites and custom categories to keep your essentials on top, plus the ability to hide or show add-ons with a global "Show All" override. You can enable or disable individual add-ons with one click, or toggle entire categories at once. The pop-up itself is configurable — adjust columns, resize its width, and set your own hotkey.

Settings can be exported and imported, covering categories, favorites, visibility and UI preferences. Find My Addon runs across Blender 2.80 through 4.x, is cross-platform and GPL-licensed. It ranks in the Superhive library and comes with documentation and a demo video.
