User reviews

Users appreciate the extension for efficiently hiding or closing many tabs quickly with keyboard shortcuts, helping manage clutter and maintain privacy. It is praised for simplicity and usefulness during research or sensitive browsing. However, common complaints include loss of hidden tabs when the browser is closed, difficulty or inconsistency with hotkey activation, and lack of support for incognito mode. Many users request persistent tab saving and improved shortcut customization.
