User reviews

Search all Tabs is a highly useful extension for managing large numbers of open tabs, providing fast, advanced search capabilities including content search and relevance sorting. Users appreciate its lightweight design and additional features for organizing tabs. However, some report issues with functionality not working or lengthy indexing, and discomfort with the permissions required. The UI and customization options could be improved to enhance user experience, while its advanced search is more powerful than built-in solutions, making it a recommended tool for efficient tab management.
Pros
  • Very useful for users who keep many tabs open (tab hoarders)
  • Works quickly and effectively even with over 100 tabs open
  • Offers more advanced search features than the default tab search, including searching content within tabs and sorting by relevance
  • Lightweight, clean, and open source
  • Includes useful features like opening all results in a new window for easy organization
Cons
  • Some users experienced the extension not working properly or indexing endlessly without allowing search
  • Requires permissions that make some users uncomfortable
  • User interface could be improved for better usability
  • Lack of customization options (e.g., to reduce multiple results per tab or simplify the display)
  • Limited search scope noted by some users (e.g., cannot search strings in the middle, only from the beginning)

Very useful for tab hoarders

sadly never worked for me, it'd just "index" for hours and never let me search. thankfully i discovered the built in ctrl+shift+a shortcut so no longer need this.

Useful, but not comfortable with the permission required so I won't be leaving it installed.

Extension safety

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.

Search all Tabs requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
