Features & Capabilities

MaxTabsLimit is a Chrome extension designed to help users manage their browser tabs efficiently. If you often find yourself overwhelmed by numerous open tabs, this tool restricts the number of tabs you can open simultaneously, preventing tab hoarding and clutter.

With MaxTabsLimit, you can quickly see how many tabs you currently have opened. It also allows you to access preferences and add-ons tabs regardless of your tab limit, ensuring essential navigation remains uninterrupted. This extension enhances productivity by maintaining browser organization and helping you focus on relevant content without distraction.

User Reviews

Almost perfect, but can I make a suggestion: I only want it to limit the number of tabs in EACH window. To help keep organized, I sometimes open a second window to focus on one type of task. I want this window to have the same limit as the first window, not a shared limit.

Is MaxTabsLimit Safe?

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.

MaxTabsLimit requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
