sTabControl

Overview

sTabControl (Simple Tab Control) is an advanced tab management extension designed for power users who work with many tabs simultaneously. If you find yourself drowning in open tabs or spending too much time organizing them manually, this extension is for you.

The extension provides powerful tools to organize, group, search, and automate tab operations. Whether you need to close duplicate tabs, group related pages, save sessions for later, or set up automation rules, sTabControl gives you fine-grained control over your browsing environment.

Built with performance in mind, sTabControl helps reduce browser memory usage by making it easy to close unused tabs and manage your workspace efficiently.

Key Features

• Intelligent Positioning: Automatically place new tabs at the beginning, end, or relative to your current tab
• Smart Focus Transition: Define exactly which tab gains focus after you close the current one
• Background Loading: Choose whether to open new tabs in the foreground or keep them in the background
• Duplicate Prevention: Intelligently prevent multiple tabs of the same URL while allowing manual duplication
• Personalized UI: Toggle between Dark and Light themes to match your system or preference

• Customizable Actions: Configure behaviors for both tab creation and closure events
• Privacy Focused: No data collection; all settings stay in your browser's storage
