This used to be a must have (a full five stars). I have used it with more than 3,000 tabs open at once. It suddenly stopped working - from the last quarter of 2023, it is mow giving apparently random results.
it is the worst
useless one
DOESN'T WORK ! ....and when in french version ?
not intuitive, what the heck?
This has potential, it actually separates active tabs from history and bookmarks. On the down side you search David and it will show you ALL bookmarks with the letter D on its title. To make matters worse, it does not search all tabs contents, so if you're looking for a word inside a tab then this isn't the extension for you. What it does do is search the titles only.
No shortcut keys to open the list of tabs and have the search box focused on immediately so that I can start typing?
I hate this is there anyway to get rid of it?
Has a significant delay before updating the switching order, making this very unlike any other implementation of MRU switching and the opposite of "quick". This isn't even properly stated anywhere, so figuring it out was confusing.
Ctrl+E is over written. No way to prevent not to be over written Thats very annoying for OSX user I hate this extension.
ctrl+n and ctrl+p do not go to the next or previous tab as listed in the instructions. instead, ctrl+n still opens a new window, and ctrl+p launches the print window. additionally, can't search INSIDE the pages of all tabs, only the TITLES or URLS of open tabs, drastically reducing the usefulness of the tab search function.
Win7 Pro 64bit: Doesn't work at all with keyboard only
Doesn't work. Keeps switching me to random tabs in other windows. NOT the MRU tab.
Used to be awesome but now you can't see the number in dark mode on your browser. There's just a dark blue box when Chrome is in dark mode itself.
Although my rating I LOVE THIS EXTENSION!!!! It is great but, from yesterday, it makes Chrome stuck/hang. The extensions get until 6GB in my laptop and a lot of CPU doing no browsing because chrome get completely stuck. Please, solve the problems (maybe related with last version released)!! It is a great work and I would love get it running again (currently disabled in my installation until next release).
This extension has an interoperability issue with TeamSync Bookmarks. Every time I save a new bookmark, Chrome locks up for 5-10 seconds. The high CPU PID according to Chrome Task Manager is Quick Tabs. TeamSync Bookmarks: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/teamsync-bookmarks/bcopfejjlalhckdkmofjciemgnjkffhj
Worked great until very recently. Now the search results don't show up. With "Collect Errors" enabled, Settings/Extensions shows "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'title' of undefined"
Requires near constant enabling/disabling to remain functional. Loved this extension until this bug.
I would give this a 5 star rating but it recently stopped working with the mouse wheel. I used to be able to scroll wheel through the list but not anymore......what gives???
This worked really well to start with (switching functionality is exactly what I want), but: 1. it froze (text in search box became uneditable) 2. people have recommended cycling the extension via disable/enable - this shouldn't be necessary 3. tabs from other windows stopped appearing in the search 4. the options page is crude - you can't completely disable the extra key bindings for closing / creating tabs - the best you can do is put them on a binding you're unlikely to want for anything else or accidentally hit
The keyboard shortcut doesn't work (CTRL-E). It just focuses on the location bar.
Can't live without it now.
I love Quicktabs, but a major bug in October 7th 2017 version had me lose all my tabs! In search, the spacebar force exit Chrome instead of its usual functions (recently closed and bookmarks search). I wish I had been warned about the update! Bookmark your stuff before using the extension! Babyman, please fix that! desjardinsj@sainteanne.ca
Unfortunately, a recent upgrade of Chrome broke this for me. Clicking the icon now does nothing. I would have given it 1 star but it's a good extension, at least it was until it stopped working. Here's my version info. This is the Linux version: Google Chrome 56.0.2924.87 (Official Build) unknown (64-bit) Revision 0e9a9a6f3676ae439b78cd9b3f62b4193c3ac7d5-refs/branch-heads/2924@{#895}
Not good. Yes, it can find your tabs, but it also finds many things you're not looking for. The results make little sense. For example, if I search for amazon with this tool, I also get results for amsoil, futurama, kenrockwell, and many other completely unrelated things. Its one high point is that it searches bookmarks too.
It is enlisting tabs in descending order instead of ascending order. Left most tab should be enlisted on top in view mode and vice versa.Thanks for the extension its really nice.
I installed this for the keyboard tab search ("<ctrl-M> gma <enter>" should bring me to my GMail tab). But the search is waaay too slow to work. I have to wait almost a second after typing my search term for the result to appear. If I press enter without waiting, it does nothing and the search dialog vanishes. Using Chromium on Ubuntu; maybe this works better on Windows?
Doesn't seem to be working in the dev channel.
Tab search is already included in Chrome (Ctrl+Alt +A), so there's likely no use for this extension anymore.
've got yet don't see a way to 0. see tabs of current window 1. see all tabs of all windows. I see the start after clicking on pinned icon yet want to see all at once with the way to search+go to. Is there a manual to read?
I wish you could choose to have the tabs be always in the same order as they are in the regular tab bar. For some reason the extension moves the open tab to the top of the list. This is useless imo and should be a choice.
BEST
The extension looks promising, but for me it does history search very very slowly - almost unusable. I press 't' and it is necessary to wait for several seconds before results appear..
Life saver as others mention but unreliable. It's a common occurrence that the extension stops producing matches and has to be reloaded manually.
Used to love it, esp the ability to rapidly search through all my open tabs with a hotkey. Sadly, its gotten buggy for me lately. Wont find open tabs. Has an incorrect number of tabs it thinks are open.
The tabs change order all the time and it sucks imo. The order of tabs should not change, the first tab should be always first, the second should be the second and so on. Would be best if the order was exactly the same as the order in the title bar. When tabs get reordered, I get lost
I was looking for one that would mark with a colour the last used 2 tabs something like this. But this one is good. However I see that it lists the oldest one on top. And I cannot change this. Would be good to be able to change the sort order in options.
Your fuzzy algorithm is too wide. Find lots of pages that I don't really want to open. Here is the screenshot: http://prntscr.com/d7npbq How can I say this? because I've tried another extension, and compare it with this. Indeed Quick Tabs has better option, interface, and customizability. But that fuzzy just a big turn down. Please fix it
I like the idea but I have more tabs open than are listed (i.e. twenty or so). There is an option to increase and decrease the closed tab display count but not open tabs? Please let us display as many tabs as we actually have open. Thanks.
At first I mistakenly thought this displayed "recently CLOSED tabs", but instead it just shows which tabs you've last visited in order, even if they're still open and active. I don't really see the point. I don't need to remember which open tabs I've visited.
Not working in fullscreen
Chrome dev. tools not showing up in list after reload. Disabled and enabled plugin, restarted. None worked
I like the interface, simple and easy but its very slow and always shows some reload error
You know quick tabs is so far closest to what i'm looking for but i'm web developer so 25 closed tabs doesn't make it. Is it possible to search whole today's history? ))
Doesn't bring tabs to front that are in different Chrome windows, even though it lists them. Why?
