URLflows for Zoom

Automatically closes leftover Zoom meeting tabs after launch and restores focus to your previous tab.

Stop letting Zoom links derail your workflow. Every time you click a Zoom meeting link, your browser opens a new tab to launch the Zoom app — and then leaves that tab sitting there, empty and useless, while pulling you away from whatever you were working on. URLflows for Zoom fixes this automatically. The moment Zoom launches your meeting, this extension closes the leftover tab and switches you right back to the tab you were on before. No clutter, no lost focus, no manual cleanup. It does one thing well and stays out of your way. WHAT IT DOES • Auto-detects Zoom meeting URLs — works with zoom.us and zoomgov.com links, including /j/, /s/, /my/, /wc/, and post-attendee launch pages. • Closes the leftover tab after launch — with a configurable delay (default: 3 seconds) so Zoom has time to open before the tab is removed. • Restores your focus — automatically switches back to the tab you were viewing before the meeting link opened. • Tracks your stats — see how many tabs it has cleaned up for you and when the last one was handled. • Pause anytime — toggle the extension on or off right from the popup, no uninstall needed. WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT • Free, forever — no accounts, no sign-ups, no bloat. • No dark patterns — it respects your time and your attention. • Private by design — everything runs locally on your computer. Nothing about your browsing, tabs, or meetings is ever collected, stored remotely, or transmitted anywhere. PRIVACY URLflows for Zoom requests only the minimum permissions it needs: • "tabs" — to detect the Zoom launch tab and close it, then restore your previous tab. • "storage" — to remember your settings and stats locally. No data leaves your browser. There are no analytics, no trackers, and no external servers. ABOUT URLflows for Zoom is part of the URLflows family of focused, no-nonsense browser extensions — where URLs flow and don't disrupt your work. Install it once, and never close another stray Zoom tab by hand.
