Extension summary

Analyze keywords

If you have a bunch of Docs, Sheets, and Slides open in your tabs, the tabs can get so small that you can no longer see the document titles; just generic Docs, Sheets, and Slides icons.

This extension gives each Docs, Sheets, and Slides document a unique favicon to make them visually distinguishable in a long row of small tabs. Over time you'll learn the icons for your favorite docs.

Can I get the colors to be different?

James Burrell, 2024-06-11

I mean, it's useful. I often have more than one Google Doc open at a time, and it's nice to have different favicons so I can navigate them more easily. But the favicons are assigned arbitrarily and at random. I wish there were some way to choose the favicon for each document, so I can make it match the theme of the document. (Also, it would be nice if the extension installation page had some instructions on how to make it work - I had to Google it!)
