🔔 Heads Up: I worked on this project in my initial days just to learn extension development. It's time to call it a day. The functionality it offered is now a default feature in the Chrome browser, making this project obsolete. Unfortunately, I won't be making any more updates.

This extension helps you to quickly peek at history in the popup that helps you view, search, and delete your history without distracting you from your work. It also lets you restore your sessions across devices (Reopen recently closed tabs/windows or tabs/windows on other devices).

The most comprehensive history extension. Clean, elegant interface and infinite scrolling. I wish for two things: a button to open browser history and - the most difficult - a selection of showing the threaded history list, i.e. history arranged per "containing" url as "main folder" and the individual pages within that url, as "files"

UNDERRATED EXTENSION the only thing i would like you to add is the ability for me to delete all my history instead of individual ones
