TabCloser Firefox

TabCloser

Automatically close leftover tabs from services like Figma, Spotify, Zoom and other commonly redirected URLs.

Features & Capabilities

Say goodbye to tab clutter. TabCloser automatically closes leftover tabs from services like Figma, Spotify, and Zoom after they redirect you into their desktop apps.

New: Custom URL + regex support. You can now tell TabCloser exactly what to close—perfect for cleaning up after SSO logins, VPN redirects, “open in app” links, corporate auth flows, and anything else that leaves junk tabs behind.

When you click a link that launches a desktop app, your browser often keeps a useless tab open. TabCloser detects those common redirect patterns and closes the tab automatically—so when you return to your browser, everything is still tidy.

Great for everyday stuff like opening a Figma file from Slack, launching Zoom meetings from your calendar, or playing a Spotify playlist a friend shared. Also handy for VS Code Live Share sessions, Discord links, and productivity tools like Asana or Linear.

Not using the desktop version of an app? No problem—disable TabCloser for that service and keep using it in your browser.

Is TabCloser 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.

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

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Grants access to browser tabs, which can be used to track user browsing habits and history, presenting a privacy concern.
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

TabCloser may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
