Extension summary

Tired of losing track of important tabs? BackTab is your solution for effortlessly navigating through your last active tabs, perfect for multi-taskers juggling numerous open pages.

Key features: • Navigate through your last ten active tabs with simple keyboard shortcuts • Works across multiple windows and profiles independently • Only the "storage" permission is required (to save your tabs navigation order), ensuring your privacy • Completely free

Unlike the browser's default back/forward navigation which moves through your browsing history, BackTab jumps between your recently active tabs, regardless of when you opened them. It's perfect for developers switching between documentation and code, researchers comparing multiple sources, or anyone who frequently juggles between different tasks in their browser.

Using the following shortcuts, you can now toggle between your active tabs:
