Tab Search: Easy Tab Navigation for Chrome

Tab Search is a supplemental tool for Google Chrome that simplifies browser navigation. By enabling users to search through their open tabs using either the URLs or the tabs' titles, Tab Search eradicates the need to manually sort through numerous tabs. It also features a keyboard shortcut for easy access and customizable shortcuts for greater user convenience. The 0.3 version includes multi-window search and a new default shortcut to avoid interfering with Google Docs and Quip functionality.

Symbol Is not visible and cannot be used. If i want to remove the extension than the symbol appears but has no fucntionality. Weird!

for all, CMD + SHIFT + A on Mac gets you native chrome tab search. no need for this extension

Doesn't work. (I'm a software engineer, I tried, no user error Im pretty sure). "Cmd + ." or "Control + ." don't work on Mac/OSX. Dev, check please if they're the same KeyCodes or something.
