Description from store
An easy way to rename the title of any tab, without changing any of the tab's content! Simply click on the Tab Titler extension, type in a new name, and voila. Your new tab name will be displayed until you leave or refresh the page.
The Tab Titler is ideal for anyone who is regularly frustrated by incomplete, in-concise, or just generally useless tab names. Also useful for when you want to rename embarrassing tabs.
Super awesome features include:
- you don't even have to CLICK on the text box to start typing a new tab name. It just knows.
- you don't even have to click on the 'confirm' button. Just press enter.
- you don't even have to click 'close' once you've renamed a tab. It'll just close for you. It's that good.

- (2021-10-31) Pat MySecret: Good, but you can't make a separate title for the same site, even if you want to for different logins.
- (2021-03-06) Newtomic: A very weak one for the purpose.
- (2021-02-04) Alik Elzin: Didn't work :(
- (2020-03-02) Chris Larkin: No longer works. Cool idea - wish it worked!
- (2020-02-13) Pacomatic: I loved it. Just a note to anybody reading this, it won't work on: -New Tab -Any sites that change their name while using it. -Anything connected to Google. Oh, and the name also sticks even if you don't use the tab. It also won't stick if you go to another tab. ALSO also, it doesn't stick while reloading 'cuz I think all chrome does is deletes the link and re-enters it. Hope you found it helpful
- (2019-08-21) Suzanna Milligan: I use it for Odyssey. I have multiple students and thus need a quick way to access each. The name reverts to Odyssey when you go back to gradebook to set or change anything. Very frustrating to have to redo each time I need to get in and out. I will remove the extension. Let me know when you fix this issue.
- (2019-01-15) Salvador Martinez: Not working
- (2018-10-10) Blake Holloway: Doesnt work
- (2018-07-24) Tom Hubl: Not working under Chrome build 67.0.3396.99
- (2018-01-04) Dave Hayes: Doesn't work at all. Tried RenameTab and it works exactly as this one should have.
- (2017-12-02) Ghost: Does what I want. I understand others would like permanent naming for tabs but for shopping and card making this is perfect! Perhaps have the option for both? Underneath where you confirm, have a tick-box that makes it permanent.
- (2017-10-19) Enes Çimen: ideal for watching movies at work
- (2017-10-02) Jack Sinclair: Doesn't work in Chrome version 61.0.3163.100
- (2017-05-26) Tyler Barrick: Ok so this extension works as advertised however there is a ton of room for improvement. The following should be the focus if this will be developed further - Hold tab names after new page loads and refreshes - Hotkey to open the dialogue box to enter the new tab name I am not sure if these are doable in Chrome but if they were added this would be my favorite extension.
- (2017-05-16) Herman Fassett: Great idea, didn't work for me.
- (2017-03-22) Ramon Janssen: Useful, but shame it doesn't stick when the page reloads. It would be SUPER useful if it could tell whether the page really changed name or just reloaded (flash of a different URL, then back to what it was)
- (2017-03-16) Ted Lam: just what I look for
- (2016-03-15) :)
- (2016-02-25) Lachlan Healey: Damnit Rachel, why did you not tell me about this? I also love ducks.

- (2021-12-13, v:1.1) Echo Point Books and Media LLC: TT doesn't load
TT doesn't show up in UI even though it's on in extensions. have restarted chrome--no change. - (2019-05-15, v:1.1) Clarke: Tab Label remaining after reload
Is there a way for the tab title to remain after a reload. That would be super helpful. - (2017-07-16, v:1.1) Nothing happens
... when I click on a tab. Nada. I don't even see a place to type in a new tab name. - (2017-06-11, v:1.1) : Broken?
Doesn't actually change anything :c - (2017-05-12, v:1.1) Mary Alderdice: Persistent across reloads / sessions.
As most everyone else, my request is that the renames persist across reloads of the tab or even browser sessions. Ideally, this would work with Chrome / Google Sync, if one chooses to sync extensions. - (2017-05-03, v:1.1) Doesn't seem to work
I type the new title in, but it doesn't change - (2017-01-09, v:1.1) Doesn't work
Why? Waste of time. - (2016-02-28, v:1.1) Kasey Cooper: Not working
Seems pretty straight forward. I downloaded this, click on the tab, but nothing happens. Restarted Chrome, etc. Nothing. I type in the name in the box, click confirm, and nothing. Any help? - (2015-09-26, v:1.1) Carro Waugh: Want title to be permanent
I want to rename tabs so that they have simple names like CNN--not Breaking News from CNN. I want the names to be permanent.
