User reviews

Users appreciate the add-on's effective and lightweight functionality to restore closed tabs and windows with a clean interface. However, several users request better theming support, particularly dark mode compatibility, and improved usability with single-click actions to reopen the last closed tab. Design criticisms include excessive spacing in the menu and icon/title gaps. Recent updates reportedly introduced bugs such as not closing the popup after restoring tabs, reopening tabs in different windows, and mismatches between selected and reopened tabs.

Pros

Effectively restores recently closed tabs and windows.
Lightweight, only uses RAM when opening the popup.
Simple and clean interface without unnecessary extra buttons.
Allows choosing which closed tab to reopen from a list.
Has been reliable for long-term users before recent issues.

Cons

Icon and background do not adapt well to different themes, especially dark mode.
Usability concerns: users want a single left-click to reopen last closed tab and a double-click to show the list.
Design issues such as large spacing between menu items and wide gaps between favicon and title.
Functionality issues in recent versions, like not closing the popup after restoring a tab or reopening in different windows than originally closed.
Some users report the add-on opens wrong or previously closed tabs instead of the selected one.

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.

Undo Closed Tabs Button requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
