Extension summary

Free tool to:

  • Deduplicate your tabs (closes Chrome tabs that are duplicates in your browser window)
  • Remove tab windows that have not been opened since a time you specify.

I created this to solve my own itch. I usually have too many tabs open and I never close my old tabs. This tool helps me keep my Chrome organized.

Use cases:

  1. If you have a ton of the same tabs open, like reddit.com, then it will remove all but one tab.
  2. Close all tabs that have not been opened in 2 hours (or any time you specify).

I hope you enjoy! If you have problems or feature request, feel free to reach out. I'm happy to help solve this problem for others!
