Tab History - View the recently visited tabs
Tab History is a free Chrome extension developed by finitehour that aims to solve the issue of losing track of recently visited tabs. With this extension, users can easily view and manage their most recently visited tabs for each window.
One of the standout features of Tab History is its simplicity and ease of use. After installation, users can pin the extension in their browser and access it by clicking on the extension icon or using the convenient keyboard shortcut (Mac: Command+U, Windows: Ctrl+U). The extension's popup window will then display the top 5 most recently visited tabs by default, but this number can be configured to either 5 or 10.
In addition to viewing the tabs, users have the ability to take action on them directly from the extension. They can choose to visit a tab, which will make it active and switch the user to that tab, or remove a tab if it is no longer needed. The extension also allows users to mute or unmute tabs that are playing audio, and muted tabs can be manually reloaded to unmute them.
Privacy is a key consideration with Tab History. The developer ensures that no personal data, such as usernames, passwords, or email addresses, is collected or shared with external sources. It is important to note that the extension does not work with 'Incognito mode'.
Tab History is a promising tool for Chrome users who frequently find themselves overwhelmed by a multitude of tabs. While the current version offers basic functionality, the developer plans to make it even more user-friendly and add additional relevant features in the future. Give it a try and share your thoughts with the developer.
