- TOTALLY, CONFUSED. I AM JUST STRUGGLING HERE.

- Does what it says but it could be a lot more useful. 1. It should close the normal tab that it is opening from. 2. If there is a incognito window open, it should add to it rather than opening a new window. 3. It should remove the site from recent history. Currently, it does the easiest step in moving a tab from a normal window to incognito.

- “Incognito This Tab” This extension is extremely light-weight and doesn’t require any critical permission like access to your browser history etc. and does not close the tab or remove it from your browsing history.

- Work great, say goodbye copy & paste current active URL into new incognito windows. But hard to see the dark black icon button in the incognito windows. Note that Google DOES NOT allow incognito tab in the regular windows. We need to open in the new incognito windows.

- Two things that this extension does that are annoying: 1. It opens up a new full-screen browser window instead of a window the same size as the current one, and 2. it opens up a new incognito window every time, instead of using an existing one.

- Simple and useful. But it always opens the incognito window maximized; I wish there were a setting to match the existing window size.

- С заявленными функциями справляется! Но,открывает ВСЕ окна во весь экран,а хотелось чтоб как исходное окно или чтоб настраивалось в самом расширении!

- Moves links to incognito/sandbox mode without requiring unnecessary permissions in chrome. (E.g. some competitors ask to read/modify data within websites, which seems a bit fishy.) Perfect!

- I thought it would open in a new tab and not in a new window in anonymous mode. But, I liked. Made easy with just one click.

- Название обещало закладку в своей песочнице - на деле открывается окно, что я могу и сам сделать.

- As a web developer and when sharing Google Apps documents, this is an essential extension. Personally, the reason I've chosen this extension is because it does NOT lose the original window when displaying it in the Incognito window.

- Incognito This Tab does exactly what it says it will; it makes the current tab into an incognito tab. In that regard, it's perfect. I however, find Incognito this Tab to be lacking in features. I migrated to Incognito This Tab from Incognito This when the dev decided to add a bunch of junk onto his extension to make money. Some features that Incognito This has that Incognito This Tab doesn't have are: 1. Erasing the tab from your history when you switch the tab to incognito - Incognito This Tab does not do this which is probably the most essential part of why most people use incognito mode. Not having this feature really diminishes a lot of the extension's functionality and makes it significantly less useful. 2. Keyword Switching - Incognito This had an option where you could have a tab automatically open in incognito mode if it had a keyword that the user set in the URL. 3. Keyboard Shortcut - Incognito This allowed you to set a keyboard shortcut for switching a tab to incognito mode while Incognito This Tab does not. 4. Automatic Inactivity Close - This feature isn't really that important to me but to some it is. Basically what this did was automatically close any tabs that had been inactive for a user set amount of time. These are just suggestions that I think the dev should add. You should definitely NOT switch over to Incognito This. At least you shouldn't until the Dev for Incognito This removes the adware from his extension. The tradeoff is by no means worth it in any way.

- This extension does exactly what it needs to without requiring arbitrary permissions or trying to load in malware/adware like the *other* incognito extension. The only flaw is that there is no option to remove the context menu button.

- I use this extension a lot. As far as incognito in a new window vs new tab, I think that's a chrome issue - there is no way to have separate user profiles in the same window with a different tab; it's always in a new window. I'm not sure I would even want two separate profiles (user 1 vs user 2, or user 1 public vs private) in the same window. It would be too easy to make a mistake.
