User Reviews
Absolutely neat, functional and spot-on add-on. No frills design, just a simple UI to choose a standard colour for a domain specific window. Thank you to the author, Joe, for saving me much headaches trying to figure out which window was for which stuff I was reseaching. I was trying to catch up on my work and this was exactly what I needed. Cheers!

It just changes the entire top bar. Why can't you make an extension that changes the colour of each tab ? Because the uniform single colour of the tab bar makes it extremely difficult to tell what tab you are in

As someone who loves to decorate herself and her things with fun and bright colors and things. I've always decorated Firefox with it's many themes but that was starting to get old. I wanted something DIFFERENT! So, I found this and after going through many other variations, I am happy to say I've found the one! I LOVE being able to have a rainbow of tabs on my screen, especially when the colors are MY choice! It's easy and quick and the options are limitless!!1

Is ColorTabs Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
ColorTabs requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
