Next Tab: Easy Tab Navigation Chrome Extension

"Next Tab" is a user-friendly Chrome extension that lets you navigate through your open browser tabs effortlessly with a simple button click. Instead of using hotkeys, you can now press a button to cycle through your tabs. It includes a powerful productivity feature called the tab timer, which helps you manage your time on websites and can even close tabs when the time is up. Customize your browsing experience by disabling animations, hiding timers, and auto-advancing to the next tab when the timer expires, turning your browser into a dynamic slideshow.

Useless extension. I have to go to the small extension icon and press it to change tab. So it's the same if I just press on the open tab but much smaller. I thought I can choose an button on keyboard and mouse and go to the next tab.

This extension does what I expect it to do it : it provides a clickable button to go to the next tab (I personally have no use for the timer features). However it I am puzzled that it doesn't also provide a "previous tab" button. This would make this extension about two times better :)

really awesome program. the only problem is lately i'll find it isn't switching tabs anymore and the icon is red. i have to start the whole thing over again. not even clicking on it fixes it.
