Previous Tab — Quick Switch

Overview

Switch to your previously active tab with a custom shortcut (default Ctrl+Q). A setup page opens on install. Press again to toggle.

Previous Tab — Quick Switch lets you jump back to your last-used tab with a keyboard shortcut you choose (default Ctrl+Q). Press it once to switch to your previously active tab, and again to toggle back — like Alt-Tab, but for Chrome tabs. Works across windows, needs no setup beyond picking your shortcut, and collects no data.
