When you have many tabs open at the same time and you want to know what the URL is inside a different tab, your only recourse is to click on it to focus the tab to see the URL.

This is much troublesome if you don't have much RAM because it will load that new tab and your previous webpage may unload, causing loss of work.

This extension will put the URL into the tab's title so that you can have a quick glimpse of the URL when you hover the mouse over the tab.

When you click on the tab, that URL will be hidden again to prevent clutter and so that it doesn't appear when you bookmark the webpage.

Why the big bright blue arrow?

The arrow must be obvious so that you can differentiate between the page title and the URL in one glance as you slide your mouse cursor across the row of tabs.

Where is the "http://"?

This is removed to prevent clutter as it is not important information.

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.

URL in Title requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

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 Browser Add-ons, 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.
