Tabbr: Tab Manager

Search your tabs.

Tabbr is a powerful Chrome extension designed to streamline tab management by enabling fast and intuitive tab searching. With Tabbr, you can quickly search your open tabs using keywords from the tab title, content, or URL, allowing you to find the exact tab even if you only remember a fragment of its content. Activate the search instantly using convenient shortcuts (Ctrl+T on macOS or Alt+T on Windows/Linux/ChromeOS), then jump directly to the last accessed tab by simply pressing Enter. Additionally, Tabbr offers a visual preview featuring snapshots of each tab to help you recognize and select the one you need effortlessly. Currently in beta, Tabbr aims to boost your productivity and browser navigation experience by making tab switching seamless and efficient.

The extension just doesn't work. Outdated, should be removed.

Cool idea but it doesn't work. With tab grouping introduced 2 years ago this also becomes somewhat irrelevant. Would have loved to use this 10 years ago back when it worked.

Doesn't work. Outdated and last time it was updated was in 2015. Shouldn't be on the webstore unless it's going to be updated - and they've had 7 years to do so. 1 star.

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.

Tabbr: Tab Manager requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
