## Description

Ctrl-F Plus enables cross-tab search functionality in a browser window by extending the browser's native Ctrl + F Find Feature (Cmd + F on Mac).  Now you can find a specific word or phrase on any of your browser tabs without having to search each tab separately.

FEATURES
<ul><li>Extended Native Browser Search: Enhances the traditional 'Ctrl F' with powerful multi-tab capabilities.</li><li>All-Tab Search: No more switching between tabs. Find what you're looking for across all open tabs in your current window.</li><li>Intuitive Interface: Designed to look and feel like the browser's native find function, ensuring a seamless user experience.</li><li>Quick Activation: Works right after install. Press <code>Ctrl + Shift + F</code> to search across all your tabs.</li></ul>
USE CASES
<ul><li>Students: Quickly find references across multiple research papers or articles.</li><li>Professionals: Seamlessly search for client names or keywords across various reports.</li><li>Shoppers: Easily compare product details or prices across online stores.</li></ul>
⌨ KEYBOARD SHORTCUT

The shortcut is ready to use as soon as you install Ctrl-F Plus:
<ul><li>Windows and Linux: <code>Ctrl</code> + <code>Shift</code> + <code>F</code></li><li>Mac: <code>Ctrl</code> + <code>Shift</code> + <code>F</code> (the Control key)</li></ul>
Prefer a different shortcut, like <code>⌘</code> + <code>Shift</code> + <code>F</code> on Mac? You can change it anytime:
<ol><li>Click the menu button (☰) and choose "Add-ons and themes".</li><li>Select "Extensions" in the sidebar.</li><li>Click the gear icon (⚙) and choose "Manage Extension Shortcuts".</li><li>Find "Ctrl-F Plus" and enter the shortcut you want.</li></ol>
Tip: to keep the Ctrl-F Plus icon visible, click the extensions (puzzle piece) button in the toolbar, right-click "Ctrl-F Plus", and choose "Pin to Toolbar".

🔒 PRIVACY

Ctrl-F Plus collects no data. Searching happens entirely inside your browser, and nothing you search for ever leaves it.
