Does Google Sheets have a Quick Access Toolbar?
Excel's Quick Access Toolbar pins commands above the ribbon. Google Sheets has no identical QAT; pin habits to keyboard shortcuts, the toolbar, or custom Apps Script menus. Browser bookmarks cover files, not commands.
When to use it
Use shortcuts or custom menus when Excel QAT held Save, Undo, or macro buttons.
When to skip it
Skip QAT recreation when the default toolbar already exposes your top two actions.
