Simple Tab Renamer
Rename any Chrome tab in one click. Lightweight, private, and uses minimal permissions.
FEATURES
- Instantly rename any tab
- Works on most websites, including Google Sheets and web apps
- No data collection or storage
- Minimal permissions; only what’s needed to rename tabs
- Extremely lightweight with no noticeable performance impact
HOW TO USE
1) Click the Simple Tab Renamer icon in your toolbar
2) Enter your desired tab name in the prompt
3) The tab title updates immediately
GREAT FOR
- Keeping track of multiple similar documents
- Organizing research tabs
- Customizing titles for screenshots
- Temporarily labeling important tabs during presentations
⚠️ IMPORTANT LIMITATIONS ⚠️
- Temporary renaming only: titles reset when you refresh the page or open a new browser window (Chrome limitation)
- No tab bar integration: works via the toolbar icon, not a right-click menu on tabs
- Some sites may override titles: pages that frequently update their own titles (e.g., Gmail, X/Twitter) can replace your custom name
- Not synced across devices: custom names appear only on the device where you set them
- Visual only: does not change bookmarks, history, or page metadata
- No automatic naming: each tab must be renamed manually (no batch/pattern modes)
- Extension icon required: you’ll need to keep the icon available in your toolbar to use it quickly
PRIVACY & PERMISSIONS
- No user data is collected, transmitted, or stored
- Only essential permissions are requested to update tab titles
