Easy Tab Switcher

Switch between recent tabs with keyboard shortcuts, like browser history but for tabs!

## Summary Switch between recent tabs with keyboard shortcuts, like browser history but for tabs. Step back and forward instantly. ## Description 🔄 Easy Tab Switcher — Navigate your tabs like a pro Tired of losing track of tabs? Easy Tab Switcher lets you jump between the tabs you actually use with a single keyboard shortcut — just like browser history, but for tabs. Step back to the tab you just came from, then keep going, with no more hunting through a crowded tab bar. 🔁 HOW IT WORKS The extension quietly remembers the order in which you visit your tabs. Press the shortcut to step back to the tab you came from, press it again to keep going further back, then step forward the same way to return. It works just like a browser's Back and Forward buttons, only for tab focus instead of pages. ⌨️ KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS • Previous tab: 𝐂𝐭𝐫𝐥 + . (𝐝𝐨𝐭) on Win or 𝐂𝐦𝐝 + . (𝐝𝐨𝐭) on Mac • Next tab: 𝐂𝐭𝐫𝐥 + 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐟𝐭 + . (𝐝𝐨𝐭) on Win or 𝐂𝐦𝐝 + 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐟𝐭 + . (𝐝𝐨𝐭) on Mac • Fully customizable at chrome://extensions/shortcuts ✨ KEY FEATURES • Tab history — remembers your recently visited tabs (up to 50) • Cross-window navigation — step between tabs in different windows • Persistent history — your tab history survives browser restarts • Tidy history — closed tabs are removed automatically, so you never jump to a tab that no longer exists • Focused on real browsing — app, PWA, and pop-up windows are ignored • Lightweight — no popups or overlays, and no impact on browser performance ⚙️ CUSTOMIZABLE Open the popup from the toolbar icon to adjust: • History length — how many recent tabs to remember, from 5 to 50 (default 20) • Cross-window navigation — on by default; turn it off to stay within the current window only • Keyboard shortcuts — set your preferred keys in Chrome settings 🔒 PRIVACY Easy Tab Switcher runs entirely on your device. It uses only the "storage" permission to save your settings and the order of your recent tabs locally. No data collection, no external connections, no tracking — nothing ever leaves your browser. Perfect for developers, researchers, or anyone who works with many tabs. Stop clicking — start switching! 💛 Support on Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/giuseppelanzi 🐙 Contribute or report an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/giuseppelanzi/chrome-tab-switcher/
