SPK 2025-02-08: This does NOT give a permanent list of open tabs down the side of the screen but is merely a drop down menu of open tabs. The name VerticalTabs is misleading and I'm surprised no-one has highlighted this before me!
Paul Edison 2024-12-02: It’s a shame this extension appears to be no longer maintained. If you’re in need of a vertical tab solution, I’d recommend giving VertiTab
Bond Sun 2024-07-22: possible to show urls with title? Thanks for the great job!
Rahil Patel 2024-07-16: i've had this extension since chrome came out. it's been working for nearly 16 years!! whoever made this is wayyyyy better than google at product design and maintenance an after having just checked out similar products in 2024, nothing quite works because the side-bar extensions take up too much space
Luca Benazzi 2024-05-07: It may be convenient on a small monitor. The main issue I see is that the overlay much smaller than a sidebar (about half the vertical space available). It should be possible to compute the screen height and resize the widget accordingly, to minimise vertical scroll. Thanks for your efforts

Norbert Simita 2023-09-20: Egyszerű, nincs túlbonyolítva. Azt tudja, amit kell. Színbeállítás (betű, háttér), még jó lenne.
knoa 2023-07-14: 常にたくさんのタブを開いているので、とても便利に使っています。検索機能をよく使うのですが、2点改善してほしいです。 - 日本語で検索したい時、「変換中」と「文字列を貼り付けた時」は機能するが、「変換確定時」に入力した文字が消えてしまう。 - 「ABC」で検索したくても、「A Boy from Canada」などのように、タブ名の途中にAとBとCが順に出現していればすべて検索してしまう。これが便利な時もあるが、不便な場合がほとんど。それを避けようと試しに「"ABC"」などと引用符でくくってみると、引用符自体も検索文字の一部になるので意図したようには機能しない。
Чижик Пыжик 2023-03-29: РУ: Прекрасное расширение. Сколько альтернатив не искал, они почему-то все хуже - то падают, то нагружают процессор как будто я SETI помогаю. Спасибо автору. Всего наилучшение EN: Great extension. How many alternatives I didn’t look for, for some reason they are getting worse - either they fall, or they load the processor as if I’m helping SETI. Thanks to the author. Best regards.
Joellyn Keener 2023-02-05: It won't work for me. It just sits up there in the toolbar and when I click on it it pops out as a wide webpage 3-4 inches long, I click again and it goes back up in the toolbar. I had it before and it worked perfectly fine so something has happened to it. I have the settings set the way I want it, but it doesn't matter what I do, it's not going to work. I hope the developer will fix this, because if not, I'm one huge disappointed user.

Marty 2022-08-16: A great alternative for TabMan Tabs Manager, which has disappeared from the Chrome Web Store so suddenly! It also allows to move tabs when there are to many tabs open and the tabbar can't hold that many tabs in sight. One thing I'm missing is searching on URL's themselves, but maybe it needs more access rights to do that.

Samuele gg 2022-03-24: • Manca il contatore delle schede di tutte le finestre; • manca un bottone per la copia degli URLs ___________________________________ • The tab counter of all windows is missing; • a button for copying URLs is missing

Joey Twiddle 2021-10-05: Just want to say thanks for this extension. I have been using it for years and it has been very helpful. Finally Chrome and Firefox implemented their own versions. But what would we have done without this?

srinidhi mergu 2021-04-22: I loved it! One suggestion would be to add serial numbers to all tabs so that we can just press Alt + (serial number) to go to that tab instead of clicking on it. I think it makes the process much quicker.

AYUSH KUMAR 2021-01-14: Useless. No use. Do not install. It asks for browser history. Really useless extension !!!

Oswald Buddenhagen 2020-11-06: with 70 tabs tried under brave on linux this is one of the two fastest "tab dropdown" extensions. unlike most extensions of this kind, it has no layout issues when the favicons don't work. the geometry is somewhat configurable. list entries with oversized titles take more vertical space (*) - if you prefer equal sized but truncated entries, or want a shortcut to activate the dropdown, try the Quick Tab extension. (*) there is a "title line size" option which may refer to this, but it doesn't do anything for me.

Alan Hughes 2020-03-31: Doesn't make any sense. You still have to show the tabs bar at the top so you can press the button for this extension to show the tabs dropdown menu, so this defeats the whole point...

Chris Vydas 2019-06-02: This is by far and away my most favorite extension for productivity. in fact you could even hide the chrome tab bar altogether and just rely on verticaltabs alone and have a much cleaner look, something i wish chrome would allow. it does what it says, does not try to do more than it should and works excellent, causes no issues or conflicts with other add-ons. you can even close tabs and slide them all around to your liking. say no to all the haters, this is very well done.

AAA OA (かぼちゃ頭) 2019-04-04: タブリストの縦のサイズも設定させてほしい(広げたい)。 (Popup height size)
Jacob Reed 2019-02-22: Works okay but needs a height adjust or "Fit to screen height" option. The reason I'm getting this is because I have too many tabs, I don't want to have to scroll and scroll to see them all!

Kin 2018-12-03: Very convenient to manage lots of tabs! Bug: the right edge of the popup window is always right below the extension's icon, and the left of the popup windo will get truncated if the icon is to the far left of the extension bar.

Rob S 2018-08-29: The "Title line size" option doesn't seem to do anything. I have it set to 1 line and I have many tabs showing more than that.

Alexander Kim 2018-07-04: Best solution for managing 75+ tabs. If you want to assign hotkey, then go to: chrome://extensions/shortcuts and set required hotkey! Great extension.
