Panic Button

Clicking extension icon hides all windows and opens a blank one. Clicking again closes the blank window and maximizes other windows
Download Compare

This extension is a traditional panic button, but without any nasty permissions.

Clicking the extension icon will hide every window of Chrome and open a blank one in the blink of an eye. It's super useful for a quick reaction when someone suddenly barges into the room.

Clicking the icon again on the blank window will close the new blank window and maximize all the minimized windows.
