Manage Your Tabs with Ease!

Too many open tabs slowing you down? This extension helps you automatically close inactive tabs based on a time limit that you set. It ensures that you never exceed your preferred number of open tabs by closing the least active ones first.

You'll see a countdown timer next to each tab, showing how much time is left before it closes. A few seconds before closing, you’ll receive a warning notification (if Chrome notifications are enabled), so you’re never caught off guard.

Want to keep certain tabs always open? Just pin them, and they will never close. Your active tabs will also stay open until they become inactive.

When tabs are closed, they aren’t gone forever! Closed tabs are saved for 2–3 days, giving you time to revisit them if needed. You can easily restore them from the list of recently closed tabs, which are ordered by the most recent first.

Nice app. Greatly helps me keep my tabs organized

Exactly what I needed! This simple feature helps me declutter and avoid the risk of getting overwhelmed by too many tabs. Also very thoughtfully developed and simple to navigate. Cheers to less anxiety and easy work flows!

Very useful tool. The developer did a great job on the automating the process of tab closing. Now I can efficiently open 30 tabs knowing that I don't have to worry about the tabs' impact on my PC since they'll just auto close. Great job!!
