Description from store
Renames the Tab Title (Firefox 115+)
Click the icon on the ToolBar (or) use the shortcut Cmd/Ctrl + Shift+ E (can be customized
from chrome://extensions/shortcuts)
You'll get a popup, enter the new title
a)Click on Save (or) Press Enter to Save or Esc to close the popup without saving title
(closing the Popup without saving makes the title non persistent)
---
b) Click on "Edit All" in the popup to manage saved titles or use regex feature
In Urls section, select the URL from dropdown located at the bottom of the page
Edit the Title in textbox
Click on save (or) Press Enter to save the title.
Click on delete to delete the title.
In Regex section, add/update regex and the corresponding title and press "Save"
eg: /.*google.*/ matches all the websites which has the term google in the url,
/*/ matches all websites
*some websites keeps updating the title on some events (eg: gmail.com updates title whenever hangouts gets initialized and whenever someone pings) this addon doesn't work in such cases as i didn't add the polling. If have any workaround for this please do mention in the comments.. thanks
If you have any suggestion for shortcut.
Please mention it in the comments and the reason why it is better.

Thanks to @miniware for sending patches

- (2024-02-19) jsosmd: UPDATE: recently, it stopped persisting through restart or even reload; ?due to some Chrome updates? I hope that the publisher will be able to restore its functioning. Because of its prior effectiveness, temporarily I'm reducing my rating by just one star. === PERSISTENCE: this is one of the very few renamers that persists through reload and even restart. SIMPLICITY: no need to go into menus and specify "rules" in order to do the retitling, DOWNSIDE: just one - unlike other retitler extensions, the pop-up's text field does not present the existing title already highlighted, which would enable any new modification of the existing title to automatically erase the existing title; in other words, to type or paste in the new desired title, it takes an extra step to first manually highlight the current title. Were it not for this omission, it would be the very best and easiest retitler around. [Windows 11; Vivaldi 6.5]
- (2023-09-25) Caleb Moore: really great tool that fixes an awful user experience i have on a tool that i used daily, where all the <titles> are the same no matter what. i often need to have like 10 tabs open. this one REMEMBERS what you chose to rename a URL to.. amazing
- (2023-08-22) Ali Schipani: This is exactly what I needed - so easy to use. I often have a lot of tabs open to make my job easier but I am always triple checking I am in the right tab. Now I can work even faster because of this extension without second guessing myself.
- (2023-05-26) Den Solodenko: Amazing, it's making my life much easier
- (2023-02-15) Роман Ю.: Мои потребности полностью удовлетворяет, уже давно им пользуюсь. Разработчику спасибо)
- (2023-01-16) Aman Shaukat: get reset everytime the page reloads.
- (2023-01-13) Brenda Posh: I tried about 8 tab title renames and found this one simple and does what it says. I wanted a one time title change. Very easy in my test. Click the tab - click the extension icon - puts up a box to change the title - press save - done. Title changes immediately - no need to refresh (which all others I tried required). I opened another page in the same tab - it kept the new title. I closed the tab and then reopened it - it kept the new title. I did F5 refresh - kept new title. When I opened a new page in a new tab, it old title came back. That works for my purposes - maybe not for everyone, But I give it high ratings for what I wanted.
- (2022-10-19) Peter Amir: Just work for one time
- (2022-08-16) Kevin Watt: Wish it'd prevent the tab title from changing through navigation/etc in the future as well.
- (2022-05-26) Сергей Друзь: Work's fine, easy to use (ง •_•)ง But I prefer to use this "Tab ReTitle". It’s more for my needs.
- (2022-04-01) Đorđe Jović: Does not work.
- (2022-03-04) Nick P: Thanks for the free tool. Please keep developing! (Make sure names don't change, right-click context menu would be fantastic if possible...)
- (2021-11-12) Patrick Faulconer: It doesn't work when the page reloads if the site is using jQuery to set the tab title. The developer of this extension could fix this by waiting until the page has fully loaded to set the table title.
- (2021-11-09) Paul McHardy (Global Head of SEO): 4.5 - I recommend a right click context menu.
- (2021-09-21) Alex E: doesn't work
- (2021-09-15) Denis Cowley: Exactly what I needed. Renames Chrome browser tab with simple click.
- (2021-09-13) Max Georgievsky: Tab name resets after reloading page, so this extension is useless...
- (2021-07-28) Christoffer Brobäck: the regex doesn't seem to allow capture groups, i added in the title $1 and /1 and didn't get other title results than "$1" and "/1" i would maintain this plugin if the source was on github and i could fork it
- (2020-08-27) KONGOU 3: Is there a limit to the number of tab titles that can be saved? I have saved hundreds of titles so far. But recently I realized that I can no longer save. If the limit is set, please remove it. Or please tell me the file name of the local file where the settings are saved. Thank you.
- (2020-03-29) Tim Hueller (TwoCables): I wanted an extension that would rename a tab for YouTube history to "History - YouTube" from the Google-forced "YouTube". I tried a few and none of them worked. Then I tried Rename Tab Title and my search ended. :) Now every time I go to my YouTube history, boom: the tab title changes to "History - YouTube". Thank you, Anush Veeranala! Edit: Now it's no longer holding the title of "History - YouTube". It holds it for a while, but after some indeterminate amount of time, it goes back to "YouTube". I can never predict when it will do that. Back to the proverbial drawing board...
- (2019-08-15) Marvel Wild: Generates error: Error handling response: TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined at setTitle (chrome-extension://kppndhfiaenbiioipolacicknfmdcdep/content_script.js:7:36)
- (2019-01-19) Jarosław Janeczek: Pierwsze działające jakie znalazłem w tym nieszczęsnym Chrome. Działające bo zapamiętuje nazwę karty również po jej zamknięciu.
- (2019-01-14) Pairs Doll: 这个插件很方便，我做淘宝的工作，先打开多个产品网页，用Rename Tab Title重命名每个标签为产品的名称，然后用Onetab保存所有网页，以后用Onetab再可以一次打开所有重命名的网页，方便工作。
- (2018-05-11) Mike Slaven: does exactly what it says
- (2018-05-07) Val Ellis: tabs randomly change back to their original title and whenever you click a new link and one of the main features doesn't even work
- (2017-11-11) Mark Kehn: I use a bookmarking website called Tagpacker to keep my favorites in the cloud. Although this extension does work, this site I use breaks the extension in the sense that they constantly refresh the site which causes the renamed browser tab to revert to normal naming. Can you fix this extension so that the renamed tab persists until the tab itself is closed, no matter how many times the tab is refreshed? I sure hope so. Thanks in advance.
- (2017-11-09) David Dubauskas: Simple and it works
- (2017-10-25) Arseniy P: plz add option for autodelete few worls in tittle. for same domain
- (2017-10-02) Jack Sinclair: The only extension I found that works!
- (2017-08-28) Evan Cunningham: It does exactly what it says. Perfect for multitasking and a clean workspace.
- (2017-08-24) Сергей Викторыч: Can you add another extension, that automatically uses bookmark title of page for tab title. So when I save bookmark google.com f.e. as "Start page", tab title automatically becoming "Start page", when rename bookmark to "Searcher", tab becomes "Searcher" and so on.
- (2017-08-13) NET: The tab name changes after clicking save. F5 to refresh and the changed tab name goes away.
- (2017-06-20) Don Nguyen: Does exactly what it says. I can now easily rename my tabs, helping me manage and remind myself what each tab is for!
- (2017-04-28) Chad Bishop: All I wanted was a simple tool to rename tabs that had very similar urls. This was the only tool that I could get to work and yet it was the simplest to use. I don't write reviews often enough, but I felt this fully deserved it.
- (2017-03-24) Mohana Sai Cherukuri: Excellent intuitive tool
