User Reviews
Pros
- Easy to use and fast: closes left/right of the current tab with simple operation.
- Practical utility that helps reduce tab clutter quickly.
- Fills missing Chrome functionality (e.g., 'Close Other Tabs') after Chrome removed it; often described as a lifesaver.
- Reliable performance and overall user satisfaction; many reviewers say it works as advertised.
Cons
- Not a one-click tool: requires clicking the extension button and navigating a menu, which some users find cumbersome.
- Missing cross-window/domain-based closing or grouping: users want to close all tabs for a domain across all windows and group by domain.
- Limited compatibility with pinned tabs and some web apps (e.g., Discord): some use cases aren’t supported.
- May conflict with other extensions (e.g., reported collision with Tab Suspender).

Cool extension, works nice. I just have small collision with another plugin "Tab Suspender". If tab sleeping can't be closed because is not detected domain - it's start from other words.

I would more like the "Close current tab" option on the top in the menu than the existing order.

Is Close Tabs 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.
Close Tabs requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
