Reformats the title of each tab according to its URL.

URL in Title Chrome Extension: Simplify Your Password Management

The 'URL in title' extension is an innovative tool reframing the structure of your browser's tab titles into their corresponding URLs. This enables a simplified user experience when deploying password autofill utilities such as KeePass. The customization allows selection from protocols and domain names to complete URL reconstruction. Features include chances to disable the extension and support for pages that remove the title element while maintaining a clean codebase.

User reviews

I use this extension to support the auto-type feature on KeePass, my password manager. Most of the time it works great, but every once in a while I have to turn the extension off and back on to reenable the URL in the page title. That is the only reason I give 4 instead of 5 stars.
