Open Links in Tabs

URLs entered in a form are opened in tabs.

Open Links in Tabs is a free Chrome extension that allows users to open multiple URLs simultaneously in new tabs. Simply click the extension icon, enter or paste valid web addresses into the pop-up form, and each link opens in its own new browser tab. It supports URLs with or without protocols, as long as they are correctly formatted (e.g., "http://example.com" or "example.com"), and excludes invalid links that lack domain extensions or contain spaces.

Unlike other tools, Open Links in Tabs runs directly in your browser without redirecting to external sites, making it a quick and efficient way to manage bulk URL opening tasks. Perfect for users needing to access many webpages quickly from a single input, this lightweight extension offers a simple yet powerful browsing enhancement.

Doesn't trim leading spaces, so it can end up opening tabs like: http://%20https//someurl.domain

Didn't work.

This extension saved my day when I had a list of 2800+ URLs I had to trace redirects with my browser cookies. Not a single fancy extension that was designed for the purpose but existing solely to gather personal data by sending back tracks to their servers could help me with that. Solved a puzzle with this one + bookmarks->"Save all open tabs" I had to repeat 28 times though =) THANK YOU!!!

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.

Open Links in Tabs does not require any sensitive permissions.
